Book the Cité du Vin to dazzle your guests without moderation
The Cité du Vin is a cultural center of international scope dedicated to wine as a living, universal cultural heritage. Its impressive architecture and spaces make it an emblem of modernity that gives a different view of wine, around the world, through the ages and in all cultures.

The Cité du Vin can accommodate up to 1000 people for seated meals and 1500 people for cocktails on different levels.
- Ideal for your meetings, congresses, conventions, gala evenings, cocktails, team building and incentives;
- Possibility to organize team buldings: tasting workshops or guided tours with our team of oenocultural mediators;
- Possibility of privatizing the Cité du Vin in its entirety for large-scale events.
The Cité du Vin is supported by the Fondation pour la culture et les civilisations du vin, a private foundation recognized as being of public utility, whose mission is to support, promote and transmit the heritage of wine.
