Celebrating Local Excellence at Canterbury Wine Festival

This past weekend, Burgess Hodgson had the pleasure of once again partnering with the Canterbury Wine Festival – a vibrant celebration of Kent’s flourishing wine scene, delicious local cuisine, and the community spirit that makes this region so special.

Held in the heart of Canterbury at the historic Westgate Hall, the event brought together a dynamic mix of passionate winemakers, enthusiastic wine lovers, and local businesses. It was a true showcase of the rich terroir and talent Kent has to offer. As a firm with deep roots in the local community, supporting events like this is more than sponsorship, it’s a reflection of our core values and our commitment to helping our region thrive.

We extend our sincere thanks to Clare, Bryony, and the entire team at Westgate Hall for organizing such a fantastic event. Their hard work and dedication made the festival a memorable experience for all involved. From the lively tastings to the engaging conversations, it was a day filled with connection, celebration, and, of course, some truly outstanding wines.

We’re already looking forward to next year’s festival and another opportunity to raise a glass with our community. Until then, cheers to local collaboration, exceptional craftsmanship, and the joy of coming together.

And a special thank you to Carlos Dominguez for capturing the spirit of the day so beautifully through his photography.
