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!

Sichuan Premium Alcoholic Beverages: Millennia of Craftsmanship, Enchanting the World
Sichuan, the heart of China's "Golden Triangle" for Baijiu production, boasts four iconic labels: Wuliangye, Luzhou Laojiao, Jiannanchun, and Langjiu. Wuliangye, crafted from sorghum, rice, glutinous rice, wheat, and corn, embodies the "strong aromatic" style with its lingering fragrance and mellow richness. Luzhou Laojiao, aged in 450-year-old "1573 National Treasure Pits," delivers an elegant cellar aroma and smooth sweetness. Jiannanchun, heir to Tang Dynasty imperial brewing techniques, impresses with its intense aroma and robust yet clean finish. Langjiu pioneers the "sauce aromatic" category, maturing in natural caves along the Chishui River to achieve a distinctive boldness and purity. These four gems, spanning China's major aromatic profiles, represent the pinnacle of Baijiu craftsmanship with UNESCO-recognized techniques and GI-certified quality. Sold in over 60 countries, they serve as liquid ambassadors of Chinese culture.

Sichuan Premium Condiments: The Essence of Sichuan Flavor, Captivating the Globe
Sichuan, China's condiment heartland, is globally renowned for its "one dish, one style; hundred dishes, hundred flavors" culinary philosophy. Nurtured by its unique basin climate, premium chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, and natural spices are crafted into iconic products via millennium-old intangible heritage techniques: Pixian Broad Bean Paste (soul of Sichuan cuisine), Baoning Vinegar (China Time-Honored Brand), Zigong Well Salt (millennial salt capital), Tongchuan Fermented Black Bean (national heritage), and Hanyuan Pepper Oil (imperial-grade numbness). Embodying the harmony of "numbing, spicy, fresh, aromatic, and mellow" flavors, these condiments elevate both fiery hotpot broths and humble stir-fries. From the deep complexity of fermented bean paste to the aromatic punch of pepper oil, each drop encapsulates time-honored craftsmanship. As the flavor ambassador of Sichuan cuisine worldwide, these premium condiments—recognized as "culinary intangible heritage"—are redefining global perceptions of Chinese seasonings, setting a new benchmark for gourmet internationalization.

Special thanks to my guide, Sofia. It's really hard for me to find a Spanish tour guide. She is professional and I have a good understanding about the China culture under her guide. During the Xi'an trip, I was shocked by the strong atmosphere of culture. I hope I can go next time, really love it.

Independent travel by train in China…
Independent travel by train in China can be daunting ordeal. We decided to use Intoexplore for booking the trip and are very happy we did. It almost felt like Norman was a family member guiding us through how to use Alipay for payments in China to where to find the ticket office in the train station to convert digital tickets to paper. He was always available (sometimes at 6 am!) to answer any question and solve any problems that arose .. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is thinking about independent travel to China .
