Overview

The Festival della Cucina Italiana in Svizzera is scheduled to take place from October 26 to November 4, 2026, across nine Swiss cities, including Zurich, Geneva, Lausanne, Basel, and Lugano.

Organized by Carla Botta, the event aims to promote the ‘Made in Italy’ brand and strengthen cultural and economic ties between Italy and Switzerland. The festival will feature ten culinary appointments and is themed ‘We Are Together’.

Program highlights include ‘eight-hand dinners’ where Italian chefs and pizzaiolos collaborate with local Swiss professionals, wine pairings supported by ICE, and discussions on the entrepreneurial aspects of Italian cuisine. The initiative seeks to showcase the entire Italian supply chain, including innovation and research, following the international recognition of Italian cuisine as intangible cultural heritage.
