Wine Tasting Markets
Our concept is simple: we wanted to move away from formal, seated tastings and create a space that feels like a vibrant, open market. It’s a place to explore, discover new favourites at your own pace, and enjoy the stories behind every bottle in a relaxed and social setting.
Whether you're a seasoned enthusiast or just curious to try something new, there’s a glass and a story waiting for you here.
Don’t miss out on our next gathering! Pop your details below or follow us on instagram @kentfestivals to stay in touch for our upcoming event dates. We can't wait to pour you a glass!

The Vineyard Stars
Some of the brilliant Vineyards and Wineries that you may have seen at one of our previous events.
Nine Oaks
A family business and one that is truly independent. From vine to wine and from grape to glass they are committed to making small batch, estate grown wines that are a true expression of a boutique vineyard in the heart of the Kent countryside.
Oast Wood Vineyard
The vines are situated between the ancient bluebell woods and our family home, the Oast house. A solitary Red Oak sits amidst the vineyard, a perfect shaded spot to enjoy watching the vines grow. Currently they have planted Pinot Gris, Pinot Noir, Bacchus and Divico.
Barnsole Vineyard
The one of the oldest vineyards in Kent. Everything at Barnsole is crafted by hand by their artisans. It is a boutique Kent vineyard and winery, with a handful of passionate wine makers who strive to produce premium quality Kentish sparkling wines.
West Fisher
West Fisher is proudly dedicated to producing quality wines and supporting small-scale producers who share their values. They also produce a limited batch of scrumpy cider—and have reintroduced their much-loved range of liqueurs.
Domaine Evremond
Domaine Evremond launched at Westminster Abbey in 2015, making English Sparkling Wine history. A unique partnership between Champagne Taittinger and their British friends, Hatch Mansfield, this marked the first time that a Champagne house had invested in the United Kingdom.
Heppington Vineyard
Climactic conditions now make East Kent, and the Canterbury area in particular, an optimum location for growing the champagne varieties. They have planted the classic champagne varieties Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier for sparkling wine, but include clones which produce outstanding still wines.
Woolton Farm Wines
The Mount family have been growing fruit at Woolton Farm for over 100 years. Today the business is still run by the family and diversified into drinks production, accommodation, hospitality, arable farming, managed woodland and grazing, countryside stewardship and more.
Yotes Court
A magnificent Manor House, Vineyard and Cellar Door, transformed with care from a tired house with an overgrown garden and fruit farm in need of investment. They strive to make the highest quality still & sparkling wines made only from grapes grown on their vineyard in Kent with minimal intervention.
Silverhand Estate
Situated in the heart of the picturesque North Kent countryside, Silverhand Estate is a hidden gem that offers a unique blend of natural beauty and rich heritage. They have established the largest single organic vineyard in the UK, covering an area of more than 900 acres.
Ham Street Wines
Certified under biodynamic standards with the BDA, they are one of the few UK vineyards embracing regenerative agriculture—creating a vineyard that benefits the environment, our consumers, and the wider community.
They combine traditional craftsmanship with innovative, sustainable practices.
