About the Unified Wine & Grape Symposium
Trade Show: Every January, the Unified Wine & Grape Symposium trade show is home to over 650 suppliers to the wine and grape industry. With more than 13,400 industry professionals attending and 730 booths, the Symposium is the largest wine & grape industry conference and trade show of its kind in North America.
Due to its success, the trade show continues to be sold out from year. In order to accommodate new suppliers each year, we encourage interested suppliers not currently in the trade show to complete a waiting list application. Historically, companies who enroll on the waiting list will have up to a year wait before being able to exhibit.
