A festival dedicated to bubbles, bubbles and more bubbles: sounds good. This summer, Fête de Champagne, the first Dutch champagne festival, will take place in Amsterdam.

The three-day festival, taking place from 28 to 30 June at Rembrandtplein, is all about champagne and the French experience that comes with it. From a game of pétanque to a French market and around a hundred different types of champagne, crémant and wine. The festival also puts plenty of emphasis on crémant, a cheaper alternative to champagne; essentially the same thing, but from outside the Champagne region.

Food and entertainment

Drinking on an empty stomach is, of course, a bad idea, so it’s nice to have something to eat as well. That has been taken care of too. You name it, they’ve got it, from foie gras to confit duck. And have you always wanted to stomp grapes? The large vats are ready and waiting for you. From 28 to 30 June, at Rembrandtplein in Amsterdam.
