Champagniac 2026, Supreme Court Terrace, National Gallery Singapore

Eighteen pours from eighteen houses, in a courtyard with a dome over it.

Champagniac is a walk-around champagne tasting, and its second edition moves from Jewel to the Supreme Court Terrace at National Gallery Singapore on Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 November. Each ticket covers one three-hour session, with sessions starting at 11am and 4pm on both days (Saturday’s 4pm session has sold out), and includes 18 pours across 18 maisons and growers, from the big houses to smaller grower producers.

A regular ticket is S$98 a session, and it is now the only ticket on sale: VIP (S$198, capped at 60 people a session) has sold out at every session. Masterclasses cost S$68 to S$88 on top, need a festival ticket, and have 24 seats each, so they will go first. Extra pours beyond the 18 are bought with S$5 tokens, and there are food pairings and a small market with an art jam between the stands. The early-bird price has closed. The organiser strongly encourages booking ahead and doesn’t promise tickets at the door.

The rules are simple: buyers must be 18 or over, and under-18s can come in with a ticket holder but won’t be served. City Hall MRT is a short walk from the gallery’s St Andrew’s Road side. The first edition drew about 1,400 people, by the organiser’s count, and the terrace is a calmer, better-looking room for it than a mall atrium.

Our advice: Saturday’s 4pm session has sold out, so take Sunday at 4pm if you want it to roll into dinner, or the 11am session on either day if you would rather finish by mid-afternoon. Eighteen pours is a lot in three hours, so eat first, sip rather than finish, and use the water. If you know what you like, a masterclass is the better use of the extra money; if you don’t, the regular ticket is the cheapest way to find out.

Our verdict: worth booking for champagne drinkers and anyone curious about grower champagne; book a session, not just a day, and don’t drive.
