SHERIDAN, WYOMING – August 10, 2024 – Wine Paris, the flagship event of the Vinexposium group, is poised to further establish itself as the epicenter of the global wine and spirits industry at its upcoming 2025 edition. Building upon the remarkable success of the February 2024 gathering, Wine Paris 2025 is expected to draw an even larger and more diverse contingent of international exhibitors and visitors.
Expanding International Footprint
The 2024 edition saw a significant surge in international participation, with exhibitors from 48 countries and visitors from 137 countries converging in Paris. This year, Wine Paris is bolstering its global appeal by dedicating three halls exclusively to international producers, including the centrally located Hall 4, which will showcase an extensive and diverse range of products. The Italian pavilion, a highlight of the 2023 event, will once again occupy an entire hall (Hall 6) due to overwhelming demand. Additionally, the spirits and craft section, featuring an expanding selection of beers, ciders, and No/Low options, is attracting a growing number of international exhibitors.
A New Era Under the Wine Paris Brand
In a strategic move to reinforce its international positioning, Vinexposium's iconic exhibition is consolidating its identity under the Wine Paris brand. This evolution marks a significant milestone in the event's history, signaling its commitment to providing a truly global platform for the wine and spirits industry.
Rodolphe Lameyse, CEO of Vinexposium, emphasized the importance of this shift, stating, "Since 2020, the international reach of Wine Paris has been one of the pillars of its development. The exhibition now fully delivers on its promise and confirms its role as the must-visit business gathering. It’s our responsibility to support the industry in its response to the global challenges caused primarily by geopolitical tensions, environmental issues and changing consumer patterns.”
A Hub for Innovation and Collaboration
Wine Paris 2025 is expected to attract a highly qualified audience of international buyers, decision-makers, and influencers. The exhibition provides a unique opportunity for industry professionals to network, discover new products, and stay abreast of the latest trends and innovations shaping the global wine and spirits landscape.
The event will also feature a robust educational program, "ON," offering over 100 events in various formats, including masterclasses, tastings, and expert-led discussions. These sessions will provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the industry, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange among attendees.
A Commitment to Sustainability
In addition to its focus on internationalization and innovation, Wine Paris is dedicated to promoting sustainability within the wine and spirits sector.
