Vancouver International Wine Festival
BC, Canada
The 46th Vancouver International Wine Festival will take place February 22-March 2, 2025, featuring West Coast U.S. Wines as the theme; the inaugural year was 1979. The wine world comes to Vancouver for Canada’s premier wine show. The Vancouver International Wine Festival is one of the biggest and oldest wine events in the world, offering something for every level of wine drinker, collector and trade professional. In 2025, the festival will feature 121 wineries from 15 countries, pouring and discussing their wines at 43 events over eight days. The heart of the festival is the International Festival Tastings at the Vancouver Convention Centre, where each winery pours 4-5 wines for the public at four International Festival Tastings and for the hospitality industry at two Trade Tastings. The room also features food suppliers and industry exhibitors, including media and suppliers. Included in the price of each ticket is the opportunity to shop at the onsite BCLIQUOR wine shop where all wines served at the International Festival Tastings are available for purchase and can be delivered at no charge to any BCLIQUOR store. Additional wines are served at special events orbiting the tasting room, including a gala dinner and auction, wine seminars, trade events, and food and wine pairing affairs at top Vancouver restaurants and hotels.
