Food film Menu 2026

Submissions are now closed, and IGCAT is delighted to announce that we have received over 100 entries for this year’s Food Film Menu! The jury now has a difficult task ahead: they must select 14 category winners, choosing films that best showcase inspiring stories connected to local food heritage, sustainability, innovation, youth empowerment, cultural identity, community well-being, food production, gastronomy and regional creativity. Learn more about the Food Film Menu categories here.

The 14 category winners will be announced online on August 10. Public vote will then be open until August 30. IGCAT will announce the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd prize winners, as well as the Public’s Favourite, during the 2nd World Gastronomy Summit Gala Event on 17 October 2026 in Manabí, World Region of Gastronomy 2026.
