Aux Vignobles! Rennes

Aux Vignobles! is a vibrant experience for connoisseurs, born from the “Salon Vins & Gastronomie”, an annual event that draws wine lovers and industry professionals to Rennes. As part of a nationwide series with over 40 editions throughout France, the fair is among the most renowned platforms for showcasing French wine culture and regional gastronomy. It is organized by GL events Exhibitions – Division VIN & GASTRONOMIE, based in Brest, one of the country’s leading trade show organizers in the field of culinary arts and lifestyle.

Held at the Rennes Parc Expo, a modern exhibition center with excellent transport connections and spacious halls, the event brings together winemakers from all major French wine regions. They present their wines in person – from traditional classics and organic vintages to innovative creations like craft beers and regional discoveries. This direct interaction with the producers creates an authentic, almost familial atmosphere, making the fair a truly special experience. For many attendees, this personal connection is precisely what brings them back year after year.

But it’s not just about wine: “Aux Vignobles!” transforms into a “marketplace of flavors”, where selected regional specialties – from artisan cheeses and cured meats to fine foods and sweet delicacies – invite visitors to taste and purchase. The variety of high-quality, small-scale products, far removed from industrial mass production, appeals to both discerning food lovers and professional restaurateurs, reflecting the French passion for authenticity and quality.

A standout feature is the temporary gourmet restaurant “Le Cépages”, created exclusively for the fair. Here, guests enjoy à la carte dishes expertly paired with wines featured at the event. The culinary offering is further enhanced by an educational program of workshops and masterclasses, providing in-depth insights into grape varieties, terroirs, and sensory analysis – a must for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of wine.

For more relaxed moments of indulgence, the “L’Echanson” area offers live music, a convivial atmosphere, and a good glass of wine to round off the fair experience.

Aux Vignobles! in Rennes is far more than a typical consumer fair – it’s an encounter with French terroir in all its diversity. Authentic, inspiring, and full of flavor, it offers a unique opportunity to meet producers, receive expert advice, and discover new culinary experiences – all in one place that has become a favorite annual meeting point for food and wine enthusiasts as well as industry professionals.

The Aux Vignobles! takes place annually, and therefore for the 38th time previsibly in November 2026 in Rennes.
