Stuttgart/Frankfurt am Main, 16 May 2023 โ€“ In 262 days, the Olympic flame for the culinary arts will once again be lit in Stuttgart. Then chefs from all over the world will compete at the IKA/Culinary Olympics and cook in fair competition for medals. The 26th IKA will take place from 2 to 7 February, for the second time on the grounds of Messe Stuttgart and once again parallel to the Intergastra trade fair. โ€œThe Culinary Olympics have been a highlight for the global chefs community for almost 125 yearsโ€, says Daniel Schade, President of the German Chefs Association (VKD), IKAโ€™s host.โ€œ Since the IKA 2020, a lot has happened and a lot has changed. But fortunately, some things have stayed the same. In close cooperation with our partners โ€“ Messe Stuttgart and Dehoga Baden-Wรผrttemberg โ€“ we make every effort to offer participants and visitors alike a culinary competition experience of a special kind.โ€
