Edinburgh - 150th Anniversary Exhibition - Saturday Daytime
Join us for the most interactive walkaround event The Wine Society has ever hosted!
Featuring producer walkarounds, additional tasting tables, optional masterclasses and more.
Saturday daytime ticket.
To celebrate our 150th birthday year, we’re hosting four special weekend events featuring walkarounds, masterclasses and lunches.
This event in Edinburgh– the most dynamic and unique – celebrates the future of wine and is packed full of wines to taste and activities to get involved with. There’s something for every knowledge level and is an ideal event to invite family and friends along to.
What’s included in my ticket?
This ticket price includes:
a four-hour pass to explore a series of rooms featuring producer walkaround areas
fine wine tasting tables
‘how to taste’ and ‘wine faults’ learning stations
Beyond the 50-year time capsule walkaround, we’ll also have a second room complete with some of our highly limited Anniversary range – fine wines that have been many years in the making, produced with some of the finest winemakers in the world and cellared to perfection. Wines on show will come from producers such as Pol Roger, Vasse Felix and Contino.
We’ll also have tables celebrating the styles, stories and culture of wine as The Wine Society predicts it in the future.
With more than 75 wines to try, ranging from affordable easy-drinking styles to premium fine wines, there is something for all tastes. And you can invite as many guests as you like!
Our 150th Anniversary Exhibitions are unlike events we have hosted before at The Wine Society.
Designed to celebrate four wine releases, the core element of the event will be a walkaround room featuring the specially created and curated wines from each of the eras and other wines from those producer.
Also included, will be an additional walkaround featuring tables that celebrate historically significant events during those eras, a fine wine table of additional wines produced for the celbratory year, food and wine pairing stations and 'how to taste' tables - all designed to enhance the experience of the event.
With three different options to attend (Friday evening, Saturday daytime and Saturday evening) we have made our events as easy to attend as possible, and encourage you to buy tickets for friends to share the joy.
The four Exhibitions are detailed below:
- Era One (1874 - 1924) - The Law Society, 113 Chancery Lane, London
- Era Two (1924 - 1974) - The Royal Marriott Hotel, Bristol
- Era Three (1974 - 2024) - The Lowry Hotel, Manchester
- Era Four (2024 - 2074) - The Assembly Rooms, Edinburgh
A full list of the key events can be found here.
What else?
In addition to the core walkarounds, we have additional options for members to buy to enhance their experience even more.
For each event we have also arranged:
- 3 masterclasses on different topics pertinent to the 50 year theme.
- An option to pre-purchase food tokens, to enjoy a small snacking plate and some additional wines to pair with them.
Members who attend our 150th anniversary events will be entitled to our usual 10% tastings discount on most available wines shown. Our limited edition wines, however, are in short supply and we will therefore not be able to offer the discount on all wines. Please note, this discount will also not apply to wines that are already discounted.
Do you send physical tickets or is it all e-tickets?
We no longer send out physical tickets for our events. An email confirming registration will be sent to the member who has purchased the ticket(s) and this email can be used as confirmation upon arrival at the event.
Can I bring a non-member?
Yes. Tickets must be booked by a member, but you are welcome to bring non-member guests.
Do I need to know lots about wine to attend?
