ProWein 2022 in Düsseldorf – Photos and Impressions

Written by Dumitru BrinzanUpdated March 18, 20232 min read

After being cancelled for two years in a row, ProWein 2022 Düsseldorf took place on 15-17 May, instead of the usual days in March. I have been attending ProWein every year since 2016, so I was happy to return to Düsseldorf Messe.

From the official final press release:

ProWein 2022 has made an impressive comeback after the pandemic-induced compulsory break. The atmosphere in the 13 exhibition halls was extremely positive over the three days of the event, and it became more than evident: The in-person format with personal exchange, live tastings and a comprehensive programme of expert events is second to none. What’s more: boasting 5,700 exhibitors from 62 countries and over 38,000 trade visitors from 145 countries ProWein is the central industry event and the international business platform “par excellence”.

Compared to previous years, the number of visitors dropped by almost 50%. It’s really not that surprising, considering the current situation in the world.

The new layout and format of the ProWein halls allowed for a lot more space in-between stands. On one hand this is great for obvious reasons, on the other hand it creates the impression of empty corridors. You will see what I mean in the photos.

Some of my photos from all 3 days of ProWein 2022 can be seen in the gallery below.
