The EVA is pleased to announce that the registrations are now open for EVEX 2026 – the European Vending Experience – which is set to take place in the historical city of Vienna, Austria, from 13-15 October at the Parkhotel Schönbrunn.

Since 2015, EVEX has grown into one of the industry’s most anticipated annual gatherings, combining cutting-edge innovation, thought leadership, and powerful networking in Europe’s most vibrant destinations. Following a highly successful edition last year in Croatia, the EVA is collaborating this time with the Austrian Vending Association (OVV) to deliver the leading European event for decision makers in the vending and coffee service industry.

Set over two and a half days, EVEX 2026 offers participants a unique combination of high-level content, industry insights and meaningful connections. The elegant Parkhotel Schönbrunn, located next to the iconic Schönbrunn Palace, provides an exceptional setting for the event. As a key and well connected city in central Europe, the choice of Vienna furthermore opens up the event not only to local players and the wider German-speaking region, but is easily accessible to Eastern European and Balkan companies.

With the programme currently being finalised, the visibility and sponsorship packages are rapidly filling up. After kicking off with the welcome cocktail and dinner on Tuesday 13 October, the following days will enable attendees to explore the trade show, learn and engage on various topics during a number of insightful conferences and interactive workshops, all while social and networking activites continue throughout the event. One of which is a guided cultural tour exploring Vienna’s rich coffee culture which will no doubt provide an enjoyable atmosphere for debate and networking.

The full programme of the event, the current list of sponsors, as well as the webpage to register for EVEX can be found here.

For companies interested in maximising their visibility during the event, a limited number of sponsoring opportunities are still currently available. Participants are encouraged to register and book their hotel room via the confirmation link received upon registration as soon as possible to secure their accommodation. Please note that the cut-off date is 30 June. Contact Julie Barth at jb@vending-europe.eu to secure your spot.

Whether you are looking to expand your network, showcase your solutions or stay ahead of industry trends, EVEX 2026 is the place to be. We look forward to seeing you in Vienna.
