Baltic Gastro Summit

“Baltic Gastro Summit” – an intellectual yet fun and insightful look into the world of gastronomy. Taking place in May 2025, this event will offer a fresh perspective on gastronomy for industry professionals, enthusiasts, and seasoned food lovers alike. It features 16 hours of unique, inspiring content and 16 speakers from around the world, including Michelin-starred chefs, scientists exploring the future of gastronomy, and renowned restaurant critics.

The event is organized by Bocuse d’Or Lithuania. Its origins trace back to Lyon, France, where in 1987, the legendary chef Paul Bocuse founded the prestigious gastronomy competition to discover and honor the most talented young chefs. Over time, this initiative evolved into an international competition, with Bocuse d’Or organizations emerging worldwide to foster and elevate gastronomic culture. The biennial competition in Lyon is now not only a showcase of mastery and creativity but also a gateway for chefs to the global culinary elite.

However, Bocuse d’Or Lithuania has a broader mission than just preparing for the global competition. Its goal is to encourage chefs’ creativity and innovation in the kitchen, share experience and inspiration, and most importantly, spread knowledge and the belief that food is more than just nourishment—it is a socio-cultural experience and an art form.
