There are few places where the art of fine living feels so natural at home as in Porto Cervo. Cradled by the emerald waters of the Costa Smeralda, this iconic destination is not only a haven of serenity and refinement, but also a place where elegance takes centre stage in every season. And each May, the region welcomes one of its most anticipated cultural and gastronomic moments: the Porto Cervo Wine & Food Festival.
From 8th to 11th May 2025, the event will take place at the Cervo Conference Center, in the heart of the village. This annual celebration brings together wine experts, passionate gourmets, and international producers in a vibrant, elegant atmosphere. While the first two days (8th and 9th May) are reserved for industry professionals, the public is warmly invited to attend on 10th and 11th May, with an exciting programme of tastings, masterclasses and live events.
A Festival for the Senses
For this 14th edition, the Porto Cervo Wine & Food Festival reaffirms its position as Sardinia’s most exclusive gastronomic event. Between celebrated Sardinian wineries, Michelin-starred chefs, and international culinary talent, the festival offers a true immersion into the Mediterranean’s most refined flavours.
From exclusive wine tastings to live cooking shows and mixology sessions, each detail is carefully curated to reflect the art of taste and hospitality. For two full days, the public will enjoy the opportunity to meet artisans, discover rare vintages, and taste the harmony between land, sea, and savoir-faire.
And for those looking to turn this exceptional weekend into a fully immersive experience, the festival becomes the perfect occasion to enjoy Porto Cervo from within, in the comfort of one of the region’s most elegant villas. At Barnes Porto Cervo, we invite you to discover our handpicked selection of exclusive residences available during the festival period, each one offering a private haven just minutes from the energy of the event
