The famous VieVinum wine fair will take place in the Vienna Hofburg from May 25 to 27 with great pomp and numerous star guests. This year, 494 winegrowers from all over Austria will be exhibiting there.

There is great anticipation and a little tension in the air! Because the wine event of the year starts on Saturday - the VieVinum in the Vienna Hofburg. The special thing about this year is that, in addition to hundreds of winegrowers, Austrian wine marketing is also bringing 1200 of the world's best-known gourmet experts from 58 countries to the federal capital.

These include Raimonds Tomsons, the Latvian sommelier world champion from 2023, master sommelier Stefan Neumeister, wine director at celebrity restaurateur Heston Blumenthal (2 Michelin stars) and "Master of Wine" Konstantin Baum, one of the biggest wine influencers with more than 150,000 subscribers on YouTube.

Focus on lectures and tastings
Tasting and discussing the impressions gained with the winemakers in person is the fundamental essence of the gourmet event. In addition, the "School of Wine" offers a wealth of specialist lectures, which also highlight some of the changes in production and marketing.
