The Wine & Spirits Wholesalers of America 77th Annual Convention & Exposition, which was to be held April 20–23, 2020 in Las Vegas, has been canceled due to the novel coronavirus. According to a statement on the WSWA’s website: “It [has] became clear that keeping our community safe and healthy went beyond any additional hygiene measures we could put in place. Additionally, in the wake of the announced European travel ban and the understanding from many of our WSWA members and exhibitors that domestic travel has already been limited, the decision to cancel the event was the right one.”
The WSWA will refund registration, exhibit booth, lower level suite, and sponsorship fees, and plans to have all refunds processed by April 5. For more information contact:
