Georgian late-night dinner

What is so special about Georgian table culture? The supra (festive table) in Georgia is unimaginable without wonderful food and wine, just like drinking without toasts. The 8000-year-old Georgian wine tradition has given rise to a corresponding tradition of toasts, a tradition that is still maintained today and follows certain rules. Getting everything right is an art. Without a tarnada (master of ceremonies), who has mastered this art and performs the toasts, a feast in Georgia is just as impossible as without music. The best way to experience the Supra is in Georgia. But as long as you are still here, you can practise celebrating in Georgian on the open-air stage. The string quartet of members of the Philharmonic Orchestra together with a toast master (Maia Koberidze) will accompany the audience through the unique tradition of a Georgian feast. Take enough handkerchiefs with you. Perhaps you will be so moved that you won't be able to hold back your tears! "Tears of happiness" are also an indispensable tradition of the Georgian Supra!
