Fine Food Australia, the nation’s largest food trade event returns to Sydney in 2025
Australia’s largest trade event for the foodservice, hospitality, and retail industries is making its much-anticipated return to Sydney this year. Taking place between 8–11 September 2025, the International Convention Centre Sydney will once again host Fine Food Australia—a four-day showcase of innovation, inspiration, and unmatched opportunity for industry professionals ready to grow, connect, and lead.
This year, the event is set to reach new heights. With a re-energised program, a stronger focus on connection, and new features designed to drive business outcomes, Fine Food Australia 2025 is a must attend for foodservice and hospitality professionals looking to set their business up for success.
“We’re thrilled to be heading back to Sydney with a refreshed vision,” said Sinead Kavanagh, Commercial Product Manager of Fine Food Australia. “This year’s show has been curated to reflect the evolving needs of the industry. We’ve introduced new features, revitalised our educational content, and focused more than ever on creating genuine value for both visitors and exhibitors. It’s about sparking ideas and making real business connections.”
One of the standout additions this year is the Artisanal Bakehouse, sponsored by Creative Ingredients. This new space brings together the baking and patisserie community in a purpose-built demonstration kitchen. It’s a hub for pastry chefs and bakers to connect, refine their techniques, and get hands-on with the latest artisanal trends shaping their craft. Meanwhile, the Culinary Kitchen will come alive daily with demonstrations from top chefs, producers, and food innovators, offering a glimpse into what’s next in the world of food.
The newly launched Hospitality Hub is a dedicated networking space designed for hospitality professionals, foodservice operators, and industry suppliers to connect away from the show floor to dive into real business conversations.
Navigating a show of this scale can be overwhelming, which is why this year brings dedicated Show Tours. These expert-led experiences will help visitors cut through the noise and zero in on the products, services, and solutions most relevant to their business.
And of course, the Industry Celebration Night returns as the must-attend networking event of the week. It’s the perfect setting to catch up with peers, celebrate industry achievements, and build new relationships in a relaxed atmosphere.
Fine Food Australia 2025 is made possible by the support of leading partners and sponsors who share a vision for innovation and industry growth. Key industry bodies including ARCA and Restaurant & Catering Australia are back on board to offer crucial insights and sector expertise. In a continued commitment to social impact, the event is proudly supporting OzHarvest for another year, reinforcing their dedication to reducing food waste.
Spanning across two full floors of the ICC Sydney, featuring 4 education stages, 4 industry competitions and over 900 exhibitors across 12 product categories, Fine Food Australia is the ultimate destination for industry professionals. Whether you’re a chef looking for the next big flavour trend, a retailer scouting new products, or an operator ready to streamline and scale, this is where you’ll find the inspiration and tools to turn ideas into action.
