Applications for the 46th Vancouver International Wine Festival are now open until May 31, 2024.

The 46th annual festival will take place from February 22 to March 2, 2025 and will feature the United States of America as the theme country, and Chardonnay as the global spotlight.

VanWineFest is a curated festival. Winery applications must be submitted by a registered and active BC wine agent on behalf of suppliers they represent in the BC market. All applications will be reviewed by a knowledgeable Winery Selection Committee (made up of wine professionals, media, and aficionados, including the BCLIQUOR category manager for the theme country).

Please review the Winery Application, Special Event Wine Submission, Sponsored Event Proposal and Winery Dinner Guidelines before you begin the application process.
