What’s different about Dionysia?
Dionysia is a consumer fair organized for the discerning wine lover. Each winery (there are more than 120 wineries), has its own table with a beautiful 2m x 2m backdrop illustrated with its own personal theme, making a visit to Dionysia a visit to a real “wine gallery”. Visitors are free to taste as many wines as they like (and can) with the complimentary tasting glass they receive with their ticket or invitation.

Are there only Greek wines?
Well, no, although the vast majority of wines are Greek. However, all major wine-producing countries are present through some of Greece’s best importers.

I am not a professional taster…
Not to worry, most people who will be visiting Dionysia aren’t either. However, if you do want to make utmost use of Dionysia in order to discover all these exciting new Greek wines, it is best to follow the professionals’ trick of spitting the wines you taste. That way you can try tens of wines and still leave the fair on your own two feet!

I am a professional taster!
If you are a wine professional, follow our advice and visit the exhibition on Friday and Saturday/Sunday right at 11:00 a.m. The afteroon hours will probably be too crowded for you.

If I come back a second day, do I have to pay again?
No, after you buy a 10 euro ticket, entrance is free after you first visit, as long as you have your special “wine-lover” badge with you. However, you will have to buy a new glass – unless you bring your own!

Can I buy a second tasting glass to take home?
Yes, you can buy as many commemorative tasting glasses as you please at the Dionysia Wine Shop, along with other items, such as T-shirts, cooking aprons, baseball caps, decanters

I’m in love with this year’s Dionysia poster. Can I buy it?
The Dionysia poster is an original creation by French artist Jean-Pierre Got, who will be present at Dionysia. Only 250 prints will be on sale at the wine poster exhibition area.
