Set aside your convenience store swill. It’s time for sake.
What to expect
Sake Jump, Japan’s renowned sake festival spotlighting the next generation of brewers, makes its Hong Kong debut. Over 20 breweries from 13 prefectures will showcase a diverse range of sake. Attendees can also enjoy sake cocktails crafted by Tokyo’s acclaimed mixologists, participate in masterclasses, and engage in meet-the-brewer sessions.

Featured breweries include Fukushima’s Otokoyama and Iwate’s Kikunoji. Craft sake will be on offer as well, with Asakusa’s craft sake brand Konohanano Brewery bringing doburuku back and Akita’s Ine to Agave mixing up new flavours.
Schedule 2025
The festival goes from June 6 to 8.

Tickets range from HK$198.00 (six tasting coins) to HK$988.00 (VIP: 48 coins and a sake cup). The mid-tier option, priced at HK$268.00, includes ten coins and your own tasting glass, ideal for anyone who doesn’t want to sip from plastic. Purchase your tickets here.
How to get there
The venue, 1881 FWD House, is a short walk from Tsim Sha Tsui MTR. If you’re considering taking the scenic route from Central, it is an even shorter walk from the ferry terminal.
