Festivités de la 166ème Vente des Vins des Hospices de Beaune

The world’s most famous charity wine auction, the Vente des Vins des Hospices de Beaune, takes place every year on the third Sunday in November.

Industry professionals, connoisseurs and wine enthusiasts alike gather for three days of festivities, in true Burgundian tradition.

To mark the occasion, numerous wine merchants and estates open their cellars.

On the programme: prestigious tastings, old vintages, grands crus and, of course, cellar tours.

Several music and folk groups will be performing in the town centre throughout the weekend.

As night falls, light displays will be projected onto the façades of seven iconic sites in Beaune, evoking their history and symbolism.

Not to mention the unmissable event for sports enthusiasts: the half-marathon through the vineyards around Beaune on Saturday afternoon.

A unique event organised by Burgundy for wine lovers!
