Tied to this event is a diverse programme of workshops, tastings, and culinary presentations by chefs from famous restaurants across the globe; so far, all of these aforementioned events have taken place in various museums throughout Zagreb. Apart from bringing together numerous wine connoisseurs, the Zagreb Wine Gourmet Festival is also a place of gathering for numerous hoteliers, caterers and journalists.
