Top chefs and small producers meet at the Gastronomic Forum in Girona

Girona has once again become the capital of gastronomy. The Gastronomic Forum opened on Sunday and closed its doors today. The sixth edition of the gastronomic fair broke all records, both in number of exhibitors, with more than 250 companies, and in how big the fair was. In order to meet the demand, the floor space was expanded by 30%.

One of the aims of this year’s edition was indeed to surpass previous ones, including when the Gastronomic Forum reached 24,000 visitors. This was more than feasible this year, as the available surface of the fair was increased about 30% because of the growth of the offer.

For the director of the Gastronomic Forum, Pep Palau, one of the challenges of the future was set at the Gastronomic Forum ten years ago, with its slogan 'Unite farmers and chefs'. "Now we are here, now we can say that everyone is involved,” he stated.
