Wine lovers will be popping bottles in April as they are treated to more than 30 combinations of prosecco.

An event which will make you fizz with excitement is taking place at Ipswich Town Hall on April 12 and 13.

The prosecco Festival is back by popular demand after it completely sold out in Ipswich in 2017 and 2018.

It is no surprise that these events are a success with fizz sales hitting a record high in Britain last year.

According to the Wine and Spirit Trade Association Brits bought almost £2.2 billion worth of sparkling wine and Champagne. A record 146 million bottles of this was from sales of sparkling wine alone.

A spokesperson at prosecco festival HQ, said: “Prosecco over the past few years has grown in popularity, we have seen a massive rise in people who now drink this out of preference. Currently it’s also an affordable option in comparison to champagne.”

Guests who visit the fizz fest can expect 30 types of prosecco, cava, and pink fizz. There will also be a handpicked selection of gins.

If that wasn’t enough there is a big selection of prosecco cocktails - from traditional Bellini to quirky alternatives including white chocolate Snow White prosecco.
