Eastern Winery Exposition | Exhibitor Information 2023

Delivering You the Largest Eastern Winery & Vineyard Market

The Eastern market continues growing each year. More than 1400 wineries reside within a 6-hour drive of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, with nearly 400 wineries in the state of Pennsylvania alone. The targeted outreach of Wine Business Monthly invites over 2600 winery and vineyard contacts in the Greater northeastern U.S. and Ontario to attend. The EWE Lancaster exhibit hall reflects this growth with a consistently sold-out trade show. We anticipate 2023 to do the same.

Marketing

The Eastern Winery Exposition is committed to delivering winery and vineyard decision makers from the Eastern U.S. and Canada. In addition to marketing via social media, industry associations, print and online advertising, throughout February and March the EWE team calls all known wineries located in the states/provinces in an effort to further increase attendance. As supporting sponsors of EWE, numerous associations offer EWE registration discounts to its membership. All of their members will continue to be notified directly about EWE and the financial benefit they receive.

Full page ads for EWE run regularly in Wine Business Monthly and the Buyers Guide. The show is featured on the website of Wine Business and all Eastern subscribers are contacted and invited to attend EWE. Additionally, all Eastern subscribers of Wine Business Monthly will receive a glossy advance program guide in the January & February issues.
