Hanoi Beverage Festival 2026 to Launch a QR-Linked Drinks Map

Hanoi’s October 9–11 beverage festival plans a QR-linked map of cafés, drink spots and cocktail venues, alongside four themed experience areas.

Hanoi’s 2026 Beverage Festival is scheduled for October 9–11 at Astronomy Park on Nguyen Van Luyen Street in Duong Noi Ward. The city’s Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism plans to introduce a QR-linked Beverage Tourism Map featuring notable cafés, drink venues and cocktail spots.

Four themed areas, from tea to creative drinks

The planned open-space festival covers about 4,500 square metres. Its four areas focus on beer and wine, tea, coffee, and fruit juices and creative beverages. The tea programme is expected to include demonstrations and tastings, with Tay Ho lotus tea among the products highlighted in the festival reporting. Coffee activities include phin-brewed coffee, egg coffee, espresso and workshops; the creative-drinks area is set to feature demonstrations with bartenders.

The map is a planned launch, not a finished guide yet

The map is intended to list notable cafés, beverage venues and cocktail spots, using QR codes to provide destination information. Hanoi says it wants to use the project as a starting point for drink-themed routes linked with sightseeing and cultural experiences. The announcement describes the map as a festival launch; it does not include the venue list or a separate downloadable map, so visitors should not assume those details are already available online.

The opening ceremony is scheduled for 7:30–8:30 p.m. on October 9, and the closing ceremony for 5:30–6:30 p.m. on October 11. The announcement does not specify admission prices or opening hours for every festival day.
