Foire aux Vins de Colmar

Fair

One of France's largest wine fairs, showcasing the Alsace wine region's distinctive white wines each August.

Foire aux Vins de Colmar in Colmar, France
7 AUG
Colmar, France

Colmar sits at the heart of Alsace, a region whose wine tradition differs from much of the rest of France — leaning heavily on aromatic white varieties like Riesling and Gewürztraminer, a legacy of the region's shared French-German history. This fair, running since 1948, is one of the largest wine fairs in the country.

Hundreds of producers from across Alsace and beyond pour their wines over the fair's ten-day run, alongside regional Alsatian food and a genuinely large public turnout that reflects just how central wine culture remains to the region's identity.
