The 2026 Michelin Guide ceremony for Britain and Ireland will be held on February 9th at the Convention Centre Dublin – its first time on Irish soil. Given Tourism Ireland’s all-Ireland remit, and Fáilte Ireland’s newly announced remit, the Michelin ceremony offers scope for a joint North-South initiative. The Convention Centre will host the 2026 Michelin Guide Ceremony for Britain and Ireland on February 9th. Despite overlapping responsibilities, no State body – Fáilte Ireland, Tourism Ireland, Bord Bia or DAFM – carried a direct mandate for restaurants. The arrival of the Michelin Guide ceremony with high-profile chefs and journalists from Britain and Ireland should have been an all-Ireland opportunity.
