Vinitaly. USA 2026

Oct

Vinitaly.USA is a business-to-business Italian wine trade show that brings producers from across Italy directly to the North American market. New York City is the city chosen by Veronafiere-Vinitaly and the Italian Trade Agency (ITA) for the third edition of Vinitaly.USA, scheduled for Monday 26 and Tuesday 27 October 2026 at Pier 36. After two editions in Chicago, Vinitaly.USA continues its development path by landing in New York City as a natural evolution of a project built in phases, maintaining continuity of format, objectives and positioning. Vinitaly.USA 2026 is aimed at producers, consortia, importers, distributors, Ho.Re.Ca operators and institutional stakeholders interested in participating in a project that focuses on quality, content and long-term relationships, contributing in a concrete way to the development of Italian wine in the United States. The format centers on two intensive business days. Two high-impact business days feature professional tastings, market-focused masterclasses, B2B meetings, and targeted networking, all created to showcase wines, strengthen brand positioning, and accelerate entry or growth in the U.S. market. For exhibitors, the appeal is direct access to a concentrated pool of decision-makers. Exhibiting at Vinitaly.USA means gaining direct access to qualified buyers, importers, distributors, and key decision-makers from the North American market, within an event designed to foster effective meetings and long-term commercial relationships.
