Institute Events

Every year and around the world the Institute hosts tastings, seminars and trips which offer an unparalleled opportunity to taste with and learn from the experts. Although primarily intended for Masters of Wine, students of the Institute and the wine trade, some of the Institute’s tastings and seminars now offer a limited number of spaces for members of the public with a serious interest in fine wine. Please email Helen Williams if you would like to be put on the Institute's mailing list for events.

Bookings for Institute events are covered by the following terms and conditions, which you are advised to read.
