The Wine & Food 2025 (Viini & Ruoka) takes place from October 23 to 26 at the Helsinki Exhibition and Convention Centre, the largest event venue in Finland. The fair is organized by Messukeskus Helsinki, known for hosting Finland’s most significant trade and consumer events. The venue is just minutes from Helsinki’s city center, offering easy access to the historic Senate Square, Uspenski Cathedral, and the bustling Old Market Hall by the harbor. Surrounded by Nordic design, culinary innovation, and maritime charm, the event invites global wine professionals to explore northern opportunities in a refined setting.
The first edition of Viini & Ruoka launched in 1997 with a focus on fine wines, local gastronomy, and trade visibility. Since then, it has grown into a dynamic meeting point for importers, producers, and buyers across Northern Europe. Every year, the fair gathers over 35,000 visitors, including professionals and engaged consumers. Exhibitors showcase wines, spirits, specialty foods, and gourmet innovations. In addition, the event hosts masterclasses, sommelier-led tastings, and B2B meetings that foster business development. Therefore, the event offers both a sensory journey and a strategic entry into the Nordic market.
For wine importers, distributors, and producers, the Wine & Food Event serves as a platform for targeted exposure and lasting connections. Decision-makers from hospitality, retail, and logistics sectors attend with clear goals. Meanwhile, scheduled tastings, business lounges, and seminars create opportunities to introduce portfolios in a focused setting. Furthermore, the event’s curated international section highlights wines and spirits from abroad, drawing media attention and trade interest. As Helsinki continues to grow as a northern food capital, participation in this event offers timely access to a market known for its quality-driven consumers and openness to discovery. Thus, Viini & Ruoka 2025 combines Nordic sophistication, culinary energy, and commercial opportunity in one refined gathering.
