Enovitis in Campo 2027 – Veneto, Italy

What to expect

Enovitis in Campo 2027 – Veneto, Italy is the only dynamic fair in Italy entirely dedicated to viticulture technology, and it is recognized throughout Europe as the most authentic field test for vineyard innovation. Unlike conventional indoor exhibitions where machines stand still under artificial lights, this event is organized directly inside a working vineyard belonging to a prestigious host estate. Every tractor, sprayer, pruning implement, planting machine and digital system is put to work in real conditions, on real slopes, with real soil and real vines. That is the core promise that has defined the format since its creation by Unione Italiana Vini Servizi soc. coop. and that keeps attracting thousands of professional visitors from Italy and abroad.

When you arrive in Veneto you will experience a fully open-air circuit where technology is moving among the rows. The sound of specialized crawler tractors climbing terraces, the precision of recovery sprayers that recycle product, the speed of mechanical weeding tools that work millimeters from the vine trunk, and the quiet operation of electric prototypes are all visible in one place. This allows winemakers, agronomists, oenologists, contractors and machinery dealers to evaluate not just brochures but actual work quality, soil impact, operator comfort and adaptability to different training systems. The travelling nature of the event is another key element. By changing region every edition, from Emilia Romagna to Lombardy, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Piemonte, Toscana, Puglia, Sicilia and Veneto itself, the fair contextualizes technologies in different pedoclimatic environments, which is essential for a country where viticulture ranges from Alpine terraces to Mediterranean islands.

For visitors, the event offers a complete professional journey. You will have access to the demonstration vineyards, a static exhibition village for components and services, a conference area with high-level technical content, and dedicated spaces for networking and B2B meetings. The Innovation Challenge Lucio Mastroberardino, the historic competition that rewards the most meaningful innovations in terms of sustainability, safety and efficiency, is an integral part of the experience. Combined with initiatives such as Vota il Trattore, guided technical tours and workshops held directly next to the demonstration rows, the two days become an immersive update on everything that is transforming vineyard work today, from robotics and electrification to precision viticulture and organic management.

Luogo e sito espositivo

The venue for the 2027 edition will be a leading wine estate in Veneto, a region that represents one of the most symbolic and economically important areas of Italian viticulture, home to denominations such as Valpolicella, Soave, Conegliano Valdobbiadene and Bardolino. While the exact estate will be announced officially on the event website, the selection criteria remain consistent with the history of Enovitis in Campo. The organizer chooses estates that can provide extensive vineyard surfaces, both flat and sloped, good logistical access for heavy machinery transport, large service areas for exhibitors, and a strong commitment to sustainable and certified viticulture.

The exhibition site itself is conceived as a large vineyard circuit rather than a traditional fairground. The demonstration vineyards form the heart of the layout, with numbered rows assigned to different operations and exhibitors. Around this central circuit, the static exhibition village is set up for companies that present products and services that do not require dynamic demonstration, such as nursery material, posts and trellising, irrigation components, software platforms, sensors and consultancy services. The conference and workshop tents are positioned close to the static area to allow easy movement between live demos and technical sessions. Visitor services including the secretariat for kit collection, catering points, first aid and information desks are integrated within the estate, ensuring that the experience remains compact, walkable and focused on field work rather than long transfers.

Programma completo dell'evento

The programme of Enovitis in Campo is structured to offer continuous learning and direct comparison throughout the two days. It opens with an official inauguration ceremony attended by representatives of Unione Italiana Vini, the host winery, institutions and the press, followed immediately by the award ceremony for the Innovation Challenge. This moment highlights the most advanced solutions selected by a technical jury for their contribution to innovation, environmental sustainability and operator safety.

After the opening, the day unfolds with parallel activities. On one side, live machinery demonstrations run according to a detailed timetable. Each exhibitor has allocated rows and time slots to show planting operations, soil and inter-row management, canopy management including pre-pruning, defoliation and tying, plant protection with tunnel and recovery sprayers, nutrition with variable-rate spreaders and biostimulants, irrigation systems, biomass shredding and recovery, and finally grape harvesting with self-propelled and trailed harvesters. On the other side, a rich calendar of conferences and technical seminars brings together agronomists, researchers, manufacturers and wine producers to discuss themes that are shaping the future of the vineyard. Topics regularly include robotics and automation, electrification of fleets, precision viticulture and detection systems, integrated and organic defense strategies, customized nutrition to meet oenological objectives, frost and heat protection, and data-driven vineyard management.

The programme is completed by practical initiatives such as guided technical visits where experts explain trial results row by row, workshops focused on calibration and maintenance, and the popular Vote the Tractor activity that involves both a technical jury and the public. Networking is facilitated by dedicated B2B areas where exhibitors can meet clients, dealers and contractors in a quiet environment away from the demonstration noise.
