Winter FancyFaire* 2026 Preview ❄️ San Diego’s Little Italy to Host Campus Tasting Trail Experience

The Specialty Food Association’s Winter FancyFaire* is more than a new name or a new location (though sunny San Diego in January doesn’t hurt). It’s a new philosophy. A belief that trade shows should energize, not exhaust. That discovery should feel exciting, not like a chore.

At this trade show, in addition to the traditional Exhibit Hall, pavilions, and booths where business will get done, show participants will be invited to sample and network beyond the Convention Center in culinary and cultural hot spots across San Diego on the Campus Tasting Trail.

In San Diego’s Little Italy, select restaurants and retailers will feature exhibitor products in bespoke appetizers and take-home gifts:
☑️ Barbusa
☑️ Davanti Enoteca
☑️ Ironside
☑️ Monello
☑️ Frost Me
☑️ Assenti’s Pasta

This is sampling, redefined. Learn more: www.winterfancyfaire.com
