IVSA Buyer's Salon Events for 2022

With the December 21, 2021 new BC Provincial Health Orders we have postponed our February 2022 Buyer's Salon in Victoria and will continue with plans for other 2022 tastings when there is a much clearer path for group gatherings.

We appreciate the ongoing support of buyers and by our agency membership.  We hope to see you soon.

Please reach out to us at admin@ivsa.ca with any questions.
