Guests can expect not only signature dishes but also the chance to hear directly from the chefs themselves, who cook, host and interact with diners throughout the event.
This year’s line-up features some of the biggest names in Italian gastronomy, with each menu reflecting the individual style, creativity and culinary philosophy of the chef behind it.

• Giuseppe Mancino of two-Michelin-starred Il Piccolo Principe on 6 and 7 July
• Max Mascia of the renowned San Domenico restaurant on 9 and 10 July
• Andrea Berton of Michelin-starred Ristorante Berton on 16 July, 21 August and 26 August
Alongside the wider programme, 0n 4 July, Michelin-starred chef Carlo Cracco returns to the resort to reopen Cracco Restaurant, this year joined by long-time friend and fellow Michelin-starred chef Matteo Baronetto. Together, they will present a special menu combining technical expertise, creativity and exceptional Italian ingredients.
