The Clifton Wine & Drinks Fair

New for 2026, the Clifton Wine & Drinks Fair brings together an exceptional collection of drinks producers, merchants and specialists for a relaxed summer tasting experience in the beautiful surroundings of the Mall Gardens.

For just £14, guests can enjoy a 3.5-hour tasting session featuring more than 100 wines, spirits and premium drinks, from boutique vineyards and craft distilleries to innovative low- and no-alcohol brands. Meet the makers, discover new favourites and explore an exciting range of drinks from Bristol, the South West and beyond.

Beyond the drinks, the Central Arena comes alive with local caterers, free-to-watch silent films and pop-up stalls, creating a vibrant, festival-style atmosphere. Whether you’re a casual sipper or a seasoned enthusiast, it’s a relaxed and sociable way to spend a summer afternoon or evening in the heart of Clifton

Better still, if you're attending a screening as part of Bristol Film Festival's Summer Season, you'll enjoy complimentary access to the fair for a limited time before or after your film.

There are six sessions to choose from across Friday, Saturday and Sunday - we can’t wait to see you there!
