The city of Ancona is gearing up for a new edition of Food&Drink, scheduled for June 20–21, 2025, starting from 6:30 p.m.
Promoted by Confartigianato Imprese Ancona–Pesaro e Urbino, with the patronage of the Municipality of Ancona and the support of the Chamber of Commerce of the Marche, the event will involve nearly 50 venues across the city center, each offering themed food and drink menus inspired by international culinary traditions.

As visitors stroll through alleys and squares, they’ll embark on a global journey of flavors — from Peru to South Korea, passing through Japan, Lebanon, Germany, Palestine, and many more.
Each establishment will propose aperitifs or dinners inspired by a different country, creating an immersive gastronomic itinerary that celebrates cuisine as a universal language of hospitality.

Part of the long-standing “La Via Maestra” project by Confartigianato, Food&Drink was conceived to promote local excellence in food service and highlight the vitality of the region.
Since its first editions, the event has consistently drawn large crowds, thanks to an ever-growing network of restaurants, bars, and pizzerias joining the initiative.
