LOW Margate is a wine and music festival set against the backdrop of the incredible Margate skies. It now takes place in both June (and a smaller more crazy event in November) each year in the wonderful seaside town on the Kent coast.

Now in its third year, the weekend of 12-14 June 2026, the old town in Margate will once again play host to a weekend full of talks, events, gigs and of course the LOW Tasting Rooms.

The LOW Tasting Rooms (Saturday June the 13th only) will allow you to sample over 100+ wines from both importers and winemakers from across Europe and Great Britain. Organic, biodynamic and low-intervention winemakers will also be on hand to lead you through the wines that respect both the grape and the soil.
