Surabaya FOOD BEVERAGE & CHEF FESTIVAL Surabaya

The Surabaya FOOD BEVERAGE & CHEF FESTIVAL is the leading trade fair for food, beverages, and gastronomy in Central Java and takes place annually. Organized by PT. Wahana Kemalaniaga Makmur (WAKENI), the event brings together key players in the Indonesian food and beverage industry. The fair serves not only as an industry meeting place but also as a cultural showcase of Indonesia's culinary diversity, creativity, and innovative strength.

Surabaya FOOD BEVERAGE & CHEF FESTIVAL sees itself as more than a traditional exhibition. It is also a stage for current food trends, a platform for pioneering technologies in the gastronomy industry, and a space for experiential culinary arts. The event is specifically geared to the needs of the Southeast Asian market. Topics such as plant-based nutrition, functional foods, sustainable packaging solutions, and Halal-certified products are in focus – especially considering Indonesia's importance as a country with the largest Muslim population in the world.

The trade fair offers valuable insights into key industry topics such as kitchen technology, temperature-controlled logistics, digital solutions for the hospitality and retail sectors, and modern food safety standards. The interactive program features are particularly appreciated: live cooking shows with renowned chefs from across Indonesia, culinary talent competitions, and practical expert presentations and workshops.

The trade fair is aimed at trade visitors from all sectors of the food and beverage industry: producers, restaurateurs, retailers, importers, distributors, and decision-makers from the hotel industry, logistics, packaging technology, and system catering. Exhibitors from established companies and innovative start-ups present pioneering products and services that contribute significantly to the further development of the F&B industry in Southeast Asia.

Thanks to excellent transport links – whether by rail, air, or highway network – the trade fair is easily accessible for national and international visitors. The modern event center creates an ideal environment for business exchange, new ideas, and culinary discoveries.

The Surabaya FOOD BEVERAGE & CHEF FESTIVAL will take place on 3 days from Thursday, 04. December to Saturday, 06. December 2025 in Surabaya.
