Vino per Roma: Italian food and wine

Excellence is set to hold the sixth edition of Vino per Roma on Friday, May 22, and Saturday, May 23, 2026, at the Complesso Monumentale Pio Sodalizio dei Piceni in central Rome, according to the organizer’s event page. The food-and-wine event is scheduled to run from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. on both nights at Piazza San Salvatore in Lauro 15. Romeing listed Vino x Roma among its main Rome events for May 2026, describing it as one of the city’s notable late-May fixtures. ### When and where is the event taking place? Friday, May 22, and Saturday, May 23, are the two dates given for the 2026 edition, and both the organizer and Romeing list the same 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. schedule. The venue is the Pio Sodalizio dei Piceni, a monumental complex in Rome’s historic center. Piazza San Salvatore in Lauro 15 is the address published by Excellence and repeated in a regional participation notice tied to the event. (excellenceevents.it) That notice, published by Sviluppo e Territorio, also identifies the event as taking place from May 22 to May 23 at the same site. ### What is Vino per Roma supposed to offer visitors? Excellence describes VinoXRoma as a trade-fair, conference and cultural event focused on Italian wine and food producers. (excellenceevents.it) On its site, the organizer says the event is designed to bring together promotion of local territory with culture, innovation and internationalization. The organizer says the 2026 edition will include 25 exhibitors drawn from wine, spirits and food businesses from Lazio. (excellenceevents.it) Excellence also lists a tasting area and cooking-show programming among the event’s main components, alongside space intended for networking among producers, buyers and sector operators. ### Who is behind the event, and who else is involved? Excellence is named by the regional notice as the group promoting VinoXRoma “in esclusiva,” or exclusively. (excellenceevents.it) The same notice says Regione Lazio, through Lazio Innova, and the Rome Chamber of Commerce’s special agency Sviluppo e Territorio opened a selection for 25 Lazio companies interested in joining the regional collective presence at the event. April 28, 2026, at 10 a.m. was the deadline set in that notice for company applications. The document says the collective was intended to support the regional economic fabric and was open to small and medium-sized producers, including startups, in wine, spirits, beer and agri-food.

VinoXRoma is presented in the source material as both a public-facing tasting event and an industry gathering. Excellence says the format combines exhibitor stands, guided discovery of products and cooking demonstrations, while the regional notice describes it as an event with fair, conference and cultural elements. (sviluppoeterritorio.camcom.it) The institutional notice also details the practical setup for participating companies, including a desk, stool, branded totem, storage access, tasting glasses, ice and 20 accreditations for each admitted business. Those details point to a structured exhibitor program running alongside the consumer-facing portions of the event. (excellenceevents.it) ### Where can readers check the latest details?
