The International Wine & Food Society

Established in London in 1933 by renowned wine connoisseur and gourmet André Simon, The International Wine & Food Society (IWFS) now has 141 branches in 29 countries, from Los Angeles to London, Bangkok to Bombay, with over 6,000 members spanning the globe.

Society members meet regularly to share their passion for good food and wine. As a member of a branch you are part of a team and the events organised are many and varied. You can push the boundaries trying new experiences, whether they are tastings hosted by experts, lunch at a local culinary school or dinner at an exciting new restaurant.

But it doesn’t stop there. As part of this international organisation there are also many other opportunities. As well as local activities, the Society organises wine and gastronomic tours, publishes an annual vintage guide, monographs and quarterly newsletters, regionally and internationally, and offers many other dining and travel-related benefits. You are also provided with the name of a member from every one of our worldwide branches, so you have a contact almost everywhere you travel.

The Society operates in three zones – the Americas, Europe Africa and Asia Pacific. Visit our website and click on your zone.
