Mer & Vigne Dijon

The “Mer & Vigne Dijon” trade fair, held for the first time in 2024, is a young yet highly promising event dedicated to celebrating the full spectrum of French culinary culture. Its name combines the French words Mer (sea) and Vigne (vine), clearly reflecting its core themes: maritime delicacies and fine wines. This unique pairing appeals to both gourmets and industry professionals seeking premium products and new connections.

The venue is the Zénith de Dijon, one of the most modern event locations in the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region. With its state-of-the-art infrastructure and excellent accessibility, it provides ideal conditions for both visitors and exhibitors. Each year in autumn – the peak season for culinary pleasures – the fair opens its doors and invites guests on a sensory journey through the diverse flavors of France.

Organized by Mer & Vigne SARL, a seasoned host of prestigious gourmet fairs across France, the event benefits from a high level of expertise. This is evident in the careful selection of exhibitors, a well-curated supporting program, and an inviting atmosphere that resonates with professionals and curious visitors alike.

At the heart of the fair are maritime gastronomy, regional agriculture, and traditional winemaking. The offerings range from fresh oysters and fine seafood to artisanal specialties and distinguished wines from all corners of France. International delicacies further enrich the selection, fostering a culinary dialogue that transcends borders.

Beyond its economic relevance, the fair also holds cultural significance for Dijon and the surrounding region. As the capital of Burgundy, Dijon has long been associated with wine and haute cuisine – a legacy that the fair embraces while introducing fresh inspiration. Competitions and awards underscore the quality of the showcased products and celebrate the innovation of participating producers.

Exhibitors represent a wide array of sectors, including fisheries, agriculture, winemaking, and artisanal food production. The audience comprises industry experts, chefs, traders, and passionate gourmets – forming a vibrant network united by a commitment to quality and taste.
