Deadline for Vancouver International Wine Festival

August 6, 2026

Apply now to showcase your BC wines at the 48th Vancouver International Wine Festival, Canada’s premier trade and consumer wine show, taking place March 6 to 13, 2027. This is the pre-eminent opportunity to exhibit wines to British Columbia’s sophisticated wine audience, including collectors, buyers, sommeliers, media, and influencers. Key trade attendees come from across Canada, including representatives from provincial liquor boards and top private retailers in Western Canada.

Applications to the 2027 Festival are being accepted until August 6. Please note that all BC wines poured at festival events are eligible to receive a “VQA Rebate” of 50% of the wine’s supplier cost (so long as the wine is VQA certified and the winery applies for the rebate), thereby lowering participation costs for BC wineries.

Discover more Reasons to Participate, register on the Festival Application System, then contact Visnja Vukelich, Administrative Director, at visnja@vanwinefest.ca for assistance with submitting an application.
