What is the China Food & Drinks Fair

Warm Welcome to the 114th China Food & Drinks Fair (Chengdu) 2026!

The 2026 Chengdu Food & Drinks Fair, scheduled for March 2026, will mark the 35th edition hosted in Chengdu, a testament to the city's enduring role as a pivotal hub for China's food and beverage industry.

Against the backdrop of expanding domestic demand and fostering a "dual circulation" development paradigm, the 2026 Chengdu Fair will further leverage its platform to drive industrial collaboration, facilitate trade between producers and distributors, and contribute to sectoral growth and consumption recovery. Since its inception in 1955, the China Food & Drinks Fair (CFDF) has chronicled the remarkable evolution of China's food and alcohol industries, cementing its reputation as a globally renowned exchange platform. Rooted in its ethos of "Exhibition, Exchange, Cooperation, Heritage, Innovation, and Development", the fair continues to embrace transformation while advancing with the times.

In 2026, the event will evolve from the "One City, Two Venues" model to "Two Venues, One City", featuring 320,000+ square meters of exhibition space across the Western China International Expo City (WCIEC) and the Chengdu Century City New International Convention & Exhibition Center (CCNICEC). Beyond the trade floor, the fair will extend into Chengdu's urban core, with satellite activities in commercial districts, culinary landmarks, and greenway parks, including the signature "CFDF Carnival" festival. This expansion enriches the fair's "ecosystem", delivering broader societal and industrial value.

The 114th Chengdu Spring CFDF 2026 is expected to gather 6,500+ exhibitors across 10 major exhibition zones and 20 specialized sectors, spanning the entire food and beverage supply chain. It will attract hundreds of thousands of professionals from around the globe for sourcing and networking. Concurrent events, including the CFDF Global Food Innovation Summit, 2026 China Premium Liquor Culture Festival, and "Top 110" Innovation Awards, will convene industry leaders, brands, service providers, think tanks, and media to explore trends through forums, launches, policy dialogues, and technological exchanges. These gatherings aim to chart the future of the sector, incubate emerging brands, and amplify marketing insights.

We sincerely invite manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, investors, service providers, scholars, and media from across the world to join us in Chengdu. May the 114th CFDF be a platform for fruitful collaboration and inspiration!
