About the day
Champagne Day falls on the fourth Friday of October each year. It began in 2009 as a toast from Californian wine tutor Chris Oggenfuss and has been marked every year since.
Only sparkling wine made in France's Champagne region, about 150 km north east of Paris, can carry the name. The region has more than 100 champagne houses and around 19,000 vine-growing producers, making nearly 300 million bottles a year.
The day suits champagne houses, wine merchants, bars, restaurants, hotels and event venues looking for a reason to run tastings, offers and social content.
