TERROIR 2026: THE JOY OF FOOD

MAY 28-31, 2026

For two decades, the Terroir Symposium has been a beacon for culinary visionaries, cultural storytellers, and community builders from around the globe. In 2026, we gather to celebrate The Joy of Food - a tribute to the flavours, traditions, and voices that have shaped our shared journey.

This milestone year honours 20 years of bold ideas, heartfelt connections, and the transformative power of storytelling at the table. Join us as we reflect, rejoice, and reimagine the future of food through the lens of joy, resilience, and collective creativity.
