Tallinn Cigar Weekend 2026
Where the Smoke Is Thick and the
Vibes Are Smooth

Mark your calendars, dear cigar friends — on August 15–16, 2026, Tallinn will once again transform into the undisputed capital of good company, great cigars, and gloriously slow smoking. For two unforgettable days, the city fills with laughter, elegance, and that unmistakable aroma that says: “Yes, life is good.”

After 13 successful editions, the Tallinn Cigar Weekend has grown into one of Europe’s most beloved cigar gatherings, attracting aficionados from across the continent. Expect premium cigars, fine dining, new friendships, old traditions, and a warm community where everyone speaks the same universal language: enjoyment.

Saturday brings the legendary Slow Smoking Competition—a qualifier for the Cigar Smoking World Championships, where patience is a virtue and haste is… well, a rookie mistake. The evening continues with our glamorous Gala Dinner, and on Sunday we reunite for the traditional Farewell Smoke, sealing the weekend with style.

The 14th Tallinn Cigar Weekend will be unforgettable, unmissable, and undeniably smoky.

Join us in Tallinn— where the cigars burn slowly, but the memories last long.

And of course, we extend a heartfelt thank you to our beautiful sponsors — with special recognition to our premium partners: Cuervo & Sobrinos , Moutai, JC Newman Cigar Co., and CigarHouse. Without their support, this event would not be possible.

“This year’s guest list was more international than ever,” said Cigar Gentleman Lasse Öhman, Vice President of Tallinn Cigar Club. “We had friends joining from Estonia, Finland, Denmark, Latvia, Italy, Switzerland, Hungary and Spain. The atmosphere was warm, the company was fantastic, and the cigars were truly exceptional. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back next year!”

As tradition dictates, the weekend concluded with a Farewell Smoke on Sunday — one last chance to savor both cigars and friendship before the smoke cleared over Tallinn’s summer skies.
