Michelin Guide to be presented in Manchester for first time with iconic Midland Hotel as venue

The Michelin Guide is perhaps the most prestigious accolade of the restaurant industry. In 2024, the guide will be presented in Manchester for the first time in its history. 

On February 5, all of the chefs running Michelin-star restaurants in Great Britain and Ireland will descend on the city. The evening will be given an iconic host venue, with the Midland Hotel opening its doors. 

On the evening, there will be the announcement of the famous Michelin Stars. In addition to this the Michelin Green Stars, which recognise pioneers in the field of sustainable gastronomy, as well as a range of Special Awards celebrating outstanding industry professionals, will also be named. 

Gwendal Poullennec, International Director of The Michelin Guides, said: "We are honoured to be bringing our celebration of the finest British and Irish gastronomy to the welcoming and ever-evolving city of Manchester. The historic Midland Hotel – a long-standing jewel in the city's architectural crown – is a venue befitting of the occasion. The Michelin Guide team is busy preparing an event that will do justice to the exceptional skill, dedication and hard work found across our industry."

The Michelin Guide Great Britain & Ireland 2024 launch ceremony will be broadcast live via the Michelin Guide YouTube channel. To find out more about the Michelin guide and to check out the full list of restaurants and chefs with a star, visit the Michelin website.
