This September, Finch, the Brixton Village wine bar, is proud to be a key player in the inaugural Brixton Beer and Wine Festival – a month-long celebration of local wine, music, and community spirit. Running from 2nd-28th September, the festival is a collaboration between Fables & Company and Brixton Village, designed to bring the joy of wine beyond the market and into the heart of Brixton.
Driven by a shared vision to make wine more accessible to everyone, Fables & Company has partnered with Brixton Village to extend a sense of community to the entire neighbourhood, not just the market, through this month-long celebration.
Festival-goers can grab a Festival Pack for just £3 at any participating venue. Not only does this unlock exclusive discounts, but 50p from each pack goes directly to Wild’s Club, a local charity supporting Kitchen and living gardens in schools around the UK; funds raided during the Brixton Festival will go to Brixton schools – the perfect way to make wine drinking feel more worthy.
Those with a festival pack can enjoy 25% off all wines by the glass at Finch. Other participating venues include Laundry, Vining Street, Guzzl, Courtesan, and Cavavin, each offering their own unique festival specials.
Every Sunday, Brixton Village will transform into a wine lover’s haven with free-to-attend mini wine fairs. The first three Sundays will be hosted in the Brixton Village Courtyard, culminating in a bigger event on 28th September that spans Market Row and the Courtyard.
Expect tastings, discounted glasses and bottles, and a chance to meet producers like:
7th Sept: Henners
14th Sept: London Cru
21st Sept: Graft
28th Sept: London Cru, Loxwood, Henners, Knightor, Gusbourne, Renegade, Balfour, Hambledon, Roebuck, Bolle – and more to be announced
To keep the vibe flowing, Brixton Village Lates and Handson Family Music will provide live music every Saturday and Sunday, adding rhythm to your wine-filled weekends.
Finch is excited to raise a glass to Brixton’s creativity, generosity, and love of good wine. Whether a seasoned sommelier or just wine-curious, this festival is an invitation to explore, taste, and connect.
Finch will unveil its brand-new wine list on 2nd September, timed perfectly with the festival launch celebrating smaller exotic regions, more English wines and Sparkling red.
A word from Fable and Company founder, Andrew Gray “This festival is about more than just wine, it’s about Brixton. We wanted to create something that feels inclusive and rooted in the community. Finch is proud to be part of a movement that brings people together over a glass of something delicious, while also giving back to the place we love. Our mission has always been to make wine accessible to all, and this is just another step in the right direction.”
