Vinexpo Discover

Explore the potential of India

10–11 September 2026

Discover India, with intent

Vinexpo Discover India 2026 is a limited-scale, meeting-driven wine & spirits business forum designed specifically for the Indian market.


Trade-first on Day 1. Curated consumer discovery on Day 2.

Focused on access, compliance and meaningful relationships, not scale.


At a decisive moment in EU–India trade relations, it offers producers and buyers the opportunity to understand the system, build the right connections and prepare for long-term, sustainable growth.


This is how India works.
This is how to discover it.

A focused, meeting-driven wine & spirits business forum designed for India

India is not a volume market for wine and spirits. It is a market shaped by relationships, regulation and education.

Vinexpo Discover India 2026 has been created with this reality in mind.

Taking place in Mumbai on 11-12 September, 2026, at a pivotal moment ahead of the implementation of the EU–India Free Trade Agreement in October 2026, this new format brings together a limited number of international producers and India’s key importers, distributors and premium trade buyers.

Vinexpo Discover India is a B2B2C format built for discovery, access and measurable outcomes.


As part of the Vinexposium Wine & Spirits Events portfolio, the event reflects our commitment to developing targeted business forums aligned with local market realities and global trade evolution.

A format built for how India works

India’s wine category represents a small share of total alcohol consumption, yet it holds strong long-term premium potential.

Growth depends on regulatory clarity, trusted partnerships and sustained education.


Vinexpo Discover India responds directly to these market fundamentals through a two-day structure:

Day 1: Trade-first, meeting-driven business forum

Strictly B2B and free for qualified trade visitors.

Day 2: Curated consumer discovery

Ticketed access for engaged, premium consumers, supporting brand awareness and category education.


The result is a controlled, commercially focused environment where producers gain clarity, build qualified relationships and position themselves early in a shifting trade landscape

Why now: A strategic trade moment

The conclusion of the EU–India Free Trade Agreement creates phased tariff evolution and new competitive dynamics. As structures adjust, early positioning becomes strategic rather than reactive.


Vinexpo Discover India 2026 offers:

  • Market intelligence at a time of regulatory transition
  • First-mover visibility ahead of tariff reductions
  • Relationship-building before structural shifts accelerate


This makes the event opportunity-driven, not policy-driven. It allows producers to engage India with preparation and insight, not speculation.
