Is there any better feeling than sipping a glass of fizz on the first night of your holiday?. Well, yes. It’s sipping a glass of fizz that isn’t wildly overpriced. Prices are rising everywhere, and the situation for wine producers is no different. Luckily, there are plenty of gorgeous holiday destinations where you can still find some bargain bubbles.

Here are seven spots where you can grab a glass of glorious sparkling wine for under £5 — and you can reach them all from UK airports in less than three hours, so they’re ideal for a weekend trip. We couldn’t not start from the home of Prosecco in Italy’s Veneto region.
In fact, although the word ‘prosecco’ is sometimes (incorrectly) used to describe sparkling whites, this wine is a protected product, meaning that only bottles produced from Glera grapes in north-eastern Italy can legally use this name. In 2023, Veneto produced 735 millions of bottles, with a tradition that goes back over 3,000 years.

The very best quality doesn’t mean you have to pay a premium, though. In the picturesque city of Treviso, which is often dubbed ‘Little Venice’, you can find Prosecco on offer for £2.52 a glass. As well as bar hopping, you can spend your day exploring the city’s medieval architecture and wandering through its canals.
