Vinexpo Discover India 2026 will take place on October 15 and 16, 2026, at Taj Lands End in Mumbai, India. The event is a focused wine and spirits business forum designed specifically for the Indian market, bringing together international producers with importers, distributors, premium trade buyers and hospitality professionals. Rather than operating as a large conventional exhibition, the format limits participation and prioritises structured access to qualified decision-makers, with a strong emphasis on market entry, distribution and long-term commercial relationships.
The event is built around pre-scheduled appointments, curated introductions and confirmed decision-maker participation. Exhibitors include international wine and spirits producers and organisations representing regional or national portfolios, while visitors include importers, distributors, premium HoReCa groups, hospitality procurement teams and modern retail buyers. Commercial discussions focus on distribution, pricing, compliance and portfolio development within India’s regulated alcoholic beverage market.
The two-day structure combines professional sourcing with market education. Day 1 is reserved entirely for B2B meetings, while Day 2 remains trade-focused in the morning before opening to a curated consumer audience in the afternoon. This allows participating brands to maintain direct engagement with professional buyers while also building awareness among premium consumers. The event forms part of the wider Vinexposium wine and spirits event portfolio and is positioned around India’s evolving trade environment and long-term premium market potential.
