Vinessio Wine Fair Erlangen

The Vinessio Wine Fair Erlangen is an annual event dedicated to wine and culinary delights. Since its debut in 2011, it has become a well-established fixture in the Franconian event calendar, attracting both private wine enthusiasts and professional visitors from the hospitality industry.

The venue is the Heinrich-Lades-Halle – a modern, centrally located facility with excellent accessibility and ample parking. Every autumn, it transforms into a gathering point for the national and international wine scene. The fair is organized by assessio GmbH, an experienced company specializing in the planning and execution of high-quality gourmet events.

At the heart of the fair is a carefully curated selection of domestic and international wines, complemented by spirits and fine foods such as oils, vinegars, cheeses, cured meats, and coffee. Visitors are invited not only to sample and compare these products but also to purchase directly from the producers. Personal interaction with winemakers and artisans is a key element of the event’s philosophy and is actively encouraged.

A particular focus is placed on sustainability. Biodynamically produced wines form an integral part of the exhibition and reflect the forward-looking character of the event. The fair is further enriched by seminars on viticulture, sensory evaluation, and origin, which are included in the admission and offer accessible expert knowledge for both beginners and advanced attendees.

Vinessio creates a link between regional roots and international ambition. It provides Franconian winemakers with a platform to present their products to a quality-conscious audience, while also welcoming renowned producers from countries such as Austria and Italy. In doing so, the fair makes a valuable contribution to positioning the region as a destination for wine and gourmet culture.

Most exhibitors come from the fields of viticulture, fine foods, retail, and artisanal production. The audience includes discerning private visitors as well as professionals from gastronomy, hospitality, and trade, all looking for inspiration and networking opportunities.

With its stylish setting, professional organization, and attractive location, the Vinessio Wine Fair Erlangen offers a truly special trade fair experience. More than just a calendar highlight for wine lovers, it embodies a vibrant union of enjoyment, quality, and regional identity.

The Vinessio Wine Fair will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 10. October to Sunday, 11. October 2026 in Erlangen.
