2026 Spring China (Guangzhou) International Tea Expo

Guangzhou has been one of the most important cities in tea trade for over 2200 years, tracing back to its role on the Maritime Silk Road and during the Qing Dynasty when it was a key focal point for international tea commerce. Today, Guangzhou stands as China’s largest market for tea circulation and consumption and a critical hub for the global tea industry.

Since its inception in 2006, the 2026 Spring China (Guangzhou) International Tea Expo has rapidly become the most significant, market-oriented, brand-driven, and professional tea exhibition in the country. Widely recognized as the premier tea event in China, it is referred to as a “barometer” and “thermometer” for tea industry trends both domestically and globally. The event moved to the expansive Area C of the Canton Fair Complex in 2010 to accommodate growing exhibitor needs.

Starting from 2021, the expo has taken place biannually, in spring and autumn, providing more quality interactions and a comfortable experience for tea enthusiasts. The 2026 spring expo will focus on enhancing the experience for exhibitors and buyers while offering a platform for displaying the latest developments in tea products and related industries.

The expo will feature a variety of products, including teas, teapots, tea beverages, tea food products, tea health products, tea crafts, and tea tourism. Additionally, advancements in tea picking, processing, packaging machinery, and new technologies for tea preservation and storage will be showcased. The event will also cover information about tea market circulation, distribution, chains, and investment financing institutions. There’s no doubt that this annual gathering will offer a valuable platform for interaction and collaboration among tea lovers, exhibitors, and buyers.
