ArmInfo.  Armenia will host the first festival dedicated to enotourism EnoFest Armenia-2025, along with a specialized forum EnoTalks Armenia-2025. Lilit Grigoryan, the  co-founder of EnoFest and EnoTalks, announced this during a press  conference.

She noted that the forum is expected to welcome international  delegations, including the International Organization of Enotourism,  led by its chairman Jose Antonio Vidal.

The festival will start on August 15 at Yerevan's Khachkar Park, and  will run for 3 days, featuring the participation of wine companies,  tour operators, educational institutions, and museums. Additionally,  there will be pavilions of crafts and art, gastronomy, charitable  organizations, and universities. A diverse concert program, a grape  blessing ceremony, and a grape  stomping  activity are also on the  agenda. According to Grigoryan, EnoFest can also serve as a platform  for establishing business networking and professional orientation.  The festival will be open from 18:00 to 22:00 on the opening day, and  from 14:00 to 22:00 on the subsequent 2 days. Admission is free.
