Heraklion once again becomes the meeting point of the wine world in 2026, as the exhibition “OiNotika” returns for its 18th edition, from Friday 27 February to Sunday 1 March 2026, at the International Exhibition Centre of Crete (I.E.C.C.) in Gournes Heraklion, co-funded by the Region of Crete.

This year’s event brings together 36 wineries from across Crete, presenting to visitors and industry professionals the evolution, dynamism and richness of the Cretan vineyard, through the island’s indigenous grape varieties and its contemporary winemaking trends.

OiNotika 2026 is co-organised by the Region of Crete and takes on a special anniversary character, as it forms part of the celebration marking 20 years since the founding of Wines of Crete. Throughout the three-day exhibition, a rich programme of parallel events will unfold, including themed tastings, presentations and educational activities, highlighting the journey and the future of Cretan wine.

The opening event will take place on Friday 27/2, from 13:00 to 16:00.
