After the 2022 edition of the large-scale international wine show was cancelled earlier due to China’s surging Covid cases and lockdowns, ProWine has officially announced that the 2022 edition will be postponed straight to next November.

“In face of the sporadic and frequent cases of COVID-19 outbreaks, following Shanghai’s epidemic prevention policy, regulations on exhibitions’ epidemic prevention and control, and in order to effectively protect the health and safety of exhibitors, visitors and partners, and ensure better exhibition effect, we prudently decide that ProWine Shanghai 2022 will be postponed to 8-10 November, 2023. With the Shanghai New International Expo Center (SNIEC) the venue remains unchanged.” the trade fair says on its official WeChat account. 

The organizer originally expected the 2022 edition planned for November 20-22 to be rescheduled for December but China’s surging Covid cases, surpassing March peak mean that the fair has to be postponed much longer than planed.
