Life just got easier.
If you’ve been to one of our ‘Movie with Wine’ events, you know we like to blend great films, brilliant wines, and a dash of fun. Now, we’ve added a little tech magic to the mix to make your night out even smoother.
Introducing our brand-new NFC-powered event widget, or as we like to call it:
“The Gadget.”
Okay, It’s Not Technically Magic… But It Might as Well Be
Thanks to the tech wizards at V1CE, we’ve got our hands on what’s basically a giant Digital Business Card — except this one’s not just for sharing contact info. It’s a launchpad for everything to do with The Wine Events Company.
Here’s what you can do with a simple tap:
• Instantly access our event blog
• View the wine list for the night
• Browse our event gallery
• Recap our movie trivia
• Sign up for our monthly mailer
• Check out what’s coming up next
And you can do all this from your phone, in seconds.

How Does It Work?
If you’re an iPhone user, just tap the top end of your phone against The Gadget.
If you’re on Android, tap the middle of your phone.
And if you’ve got an older phone, no worries — there’s a QR code you can scan.
Seriously, it’s that easy. We’ve even made a quick video to show you exactly how it works and what to expect when you give it a go. (Trust us, it’s satisfying.)
Always On, Always Handy
We love how simple and fun this tool is — and for those of you who like the idea of having your own version, V1CE also makes wallet-sized NFC business cards. Same magic, just in a compact format. No more paper cards, no more printing costs. Just one sleek card that holds all your details and updates in real time.
Try It Out
So next time you’re at a Wine Events Co. night, come and road-test The Gadget. It’s our new favorite party trick — and a genuinely handy way to stay connected, get info, and keep the wine flowing without missing a beat.
See you soon at the next ‘Movie with Wine’ night. Cheers!
🍷 Yours in wine,
Tony & Lucy
