Participants will be able to take part in tastings, workshops, masterclasses, competitions, and networking zones, while also discovering the latest solutions and market directions in gastronomy and hospitality.

The previous edition confirmed the growing importance of the event. In 2025, GASTRO SWEET FEST welcomed 9,769 visitors, hosted 148 participants, and featured representation from 5 countries. The exhibition covered more than 10,284 sqm of gross exhibition area, highlighting its strong position in the regional market.

The exhibition profile will cover a broad spectrum of products and services, including chocolates, desserts, confectionery, artisan bakery, specialty coffee, espresso machines, wine producers, sommeliers, beverages, foodservice equipment, kitchen technologies, cake decoration, HoReCa ingredients, cocktails, spirits, and foodservice solutions.

The visitor profile reflects the strong business potential of the event. The exhibition attracts importers, distributors, retail chains, restaurant and café owners, hoteliers, banquet managers, chefs, pastry professionals, coffee shop operators, baristas, bakery owners, wine and beverage buyers, foodservice professionals, and gastronomy enthusiasts.

GASTRO SWEET FEST 2026 is an important meeting place for companies looking to grow in the gastronomy, pastry, bakery, coffee, wine, and premium foodservice sectors.
