From January 21 to 25, 2027, the world of hospitality and culinary excellence will converge at Eurexpo Lyon for the 23rd edition of Sirha Lyon. As the industry undergoes rapid transformation, this milestone event evolves to address emerging market trends, solidifying its role as a strategic platform for international decision-makers, buyers, and distributors.
A larger stage for global innovation
With the expansion of Hall 4, the exhibition now boasts nearly 150,000 square meters of space, designed to showcase a more diverse and comprehensive array of solutions. The 2027 edition introduces specialized thematic areas, including Hospitality Factory, Pizza World, and the Liquid sector, all tailored to provide professionals with targeted networking and business opportunities. With over 4,300 exhibitors and brands—including 650 first-time participants and a large Italian delegation—the event reaffirms its status as a must-attend destination for those shaping the future of global food service.
Business at the heart of the experience
Recognizing the needs of high-level industry players, the organizers have launched Sirha Lyon Experience, a dedicated project featuring twenty spaces, lounges, and networking hubs to facilitate high-stakes meetings. Innovation remains a primary focus, with Sirha Start Up hosting 60 pioneering ventures and the Sirha Innovation Awards honoring the most significant market breakthroughs.
Celebrating Excellence and the Italian Presence
The event will also host three prestigious international competitions: the International Catering Cup, the Pastry World Cup, and the legendary Bocuse d’Or, which celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2027. The Italian delegation arrives in Lyon with high expectations, bolstered by the bronze medal recently secured at the European selections in Marseille. As Luc Dubanchet, General Director of Sirha Food, noted, the expansion of the fair creates the ideal environment for the food service community to meet, exchange expertise, and forge new, lucrative partnerships on a global scale.
