Preparations in full swing, Online ticket shop open
Messe Düsseldorf relies on proven PROTaction Hygiene Concept
8 December – With around three months to go, ProWein in Düsseldorf, Germany will finally open its doors again for the first in-person event in three years. The focus of the entire wine and spirits industry will be on the 13 exhibition halls from March 27 – 29, 2022. With its approximately 5,500 exhibitors – including the international brand leaders, importers and exporters, commercial agents, select vintners and the regional growing regions – ProWein 2022 will once again offer a globally unique range of products.
The preparations for ProWein 2022 are in full swing: the detailed space allocation for the 13 exhibition halls is almost complete and the online exhibitor database as good as finished. Now the exhibitors are filling this database with their concrete product data – crucial information for all for international trade visitors to plan and prepare their visit. The online ticket shop is also open and wine and spirits professionals will be able to secure their tickets (Euros 50) at www.prowein.de/2130. Unlike in previous years, tickets can only be purchased online – not at the entrances on site. ProWein will be open as usual from Sunday to Tuesday, from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm daily.
PROTaction Hygiene Concept
COVID-19 plays a pivotal role in the preparations. This is why Messe Düsseldorf has developed the comprehensive hygiene concept PROTaction, which has already been successfully implemented at other trade fairs in Düsseldorf. In addition, trade fairs are business platforms and therefore not subject to the safety and hygiene rules of cultural, sports and leisure events. At the center of PROTaction is the VRT principle: access to ProWein is therefore – just as at all B-2-B trade fairs – restricted to those who have been vaccinated, recovered or tested. “We are very well prepared and capable of consistently implementing all legal requirements at our exhibition center thanks to our proven PROTaction concept. All measures – be it the access controls at the entrances or compliance with the MDH rules inside the halls – contribute substantially to the safety of exhibitors, visitors and journalists,” stated Michael Degen, Executive Director Messe Düsseldorf. “Even in times of the pandemic we offer our exhibitors and visitors a perfect platform with space for information exchange, networking and tasting.”
The exhibitors explicitly back ProWein and its COVID-19 policy. Perhaps Frederico Falcão, President of Wines of Portugal, sums it up most aptly: “We have to look to the future with optimism, ProWein absolutely has to take place. We see no reasons for cancelling – on the contrary: we are confidently counting on ProWein 2022 and look forward to the trade fair next year.”
