Glasgow to Host The MICHELIN Guide Ceremony Great Britain & Ireland 2025

Find out when and where the next Michelin Stars will be announced for British and Irish restaurants

We are delighted to announce that the restaurant selection for The MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2025 will be unveiled on Monday 10th February at Glasgow’s Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum. The celebration has been made possible thanks to a partnership with Scotland Food & Drink and Glasgow Life.

Last year’s event was a truly wonderful night of celebration, where we recognised the outstanding achievements of hard-working hospitality professionals across the UK and Ireland. This year, we are excited to once again honour the best cooking around, in the spectacular surroundings of the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in Glasgow. With its eye-catching architecture and over a century’s worth of history, we’re sure it will provide a brilliant setting for the Ceremony. A cocktail afterparty will be held in the equally beautiful Old Fruitmarket.

The event will see the announcement of not just the renowned Michelin Stars, but also our Green Stars recognising pioneers in the field of sustainable gastronomy. A range of Special Awards, celebrating exceptional industry professionals, will also be presented on the night. All chefs running a Starred restaurant, as well as journalists, influencers, partners and industry leaders will be invited to the Ceremony.

“We are absolutely thrilled to announce that, for the first time, The MICHELIN Guide Ceremony for Great Britain & Ireland will be presented from Scotland. The home of delicious produce, timeless culinary traditions and warm hospitality, Scotland, and more specifically the buzzing city of Glasgow, is a fitting location to celebrate the incredible gastronomic talent across the UK and the Republic of Ireland. The MICHELIN Guide team are hard at work preparing an event that will honour the passion, determination and skill of everyone who makes our industry so special.”

“Scotland’s food and drink is world-renowned, from our iconic produce such as seafood, salmon or whisky, to lesser-known products like confectionery or bakery. Chefs both at home and abroad recognise the provenance, quality and tradition that creates our abundant larder and makes our produce so unique. It’s therefore incredibly exciting to be working in partnership with Glasgow Life to bring The MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland Ceremony to Scotland for the first time in February 2025. This prestigious event will not only showcase Glasgow and Scotland to the culinary world as an outstanding location for produce, but also enhance Scotland's ambition to be a globally renowned food tourism destination, promoting the country's credentials to The MICHELIN Guide community in Scotland, the UK and around the world.”

“Glasgow is home to one of the UK’s best food and drink scenes, so it is an honour for the city to host the first-ever MICHELIN Guide Great Britain & Ireland awards ceremony held in Scotland. As an event which serves as a global celebration of culinary excellence, our guests will feel at home in Glasgow, where residents and visitors are rightly proud of the city’s extensive and multicultural food and drink offer. Hosting an event of this scale will only raise the profile of Glasgow’s incredible food and drink scene.”
