Global Chefs Challenge – Africa & Middle East Regional Semi-Finals 2025

The Global Chef Challenge – Africa & Middle East Regional Semi-Finals will be held in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates, 21-23, May 2025.

INTRODUCTION – THE ROAD TO WALES

For the 2025 Global Chef Challenge Final, 40 teams will compete in ICC Wales in Newport, Wales across 4 categories: The Global Chefs Challenge, Global Pastry Chefs Challenge, Global Vegan Chefs Challenge, and Global Young Chefs Challenge.

The host country for the Worldchefs Congress and Global Chefs Challenge Final always receives a “wild card” position for their team in each of the 4 categories, qualifying without having to necessarily place in any partner or semi-final competition.

The remaining teams to join the competition ranks must first advance through national qualifying rounds before moving on to Regional Semi-Finals. These 7 regional winners then advance to the world stage to compete for top honors alongside the prequalifying IKA/Culinary Olympics 2024 contenders at the Global Chef Challenge Finals.
