TU Dublin Hosts Prestigious Gastronomy Conference in Grangegorman

Published: 23 May, 2022

The Dublin Gastronomy Symposium is a biennial international food conference hosted every two years by the School of Culinary Arts and Food Technology at TU Dublin. For the first time, it will take place in the School's new home in the Central Quad at Grangegorman from 31 May to 1 June 2022.

First held in 2012, it is an exciting, multidisciplinary gathering of academics, practitioners from food production and tourism, researchers, scientists, writers, hospitality professionals, and journalists – in fact, anyone with an interest and enthusiasm for gastronomy, including both food and beverages.  

The DGS provides a forum for those interested in gastronomy research to come together, network and engage in academic discourse regarding “all things food”. The Symposium places equal emphasis on providing opportunities for interested gastronomes to interact with each other outside of formal presentations through opportunities for convivial engagement at carefully planned conference lunches and a conference banquet dinner. A key motivator for participation is the opportunity to have submissions through the TU Dublin Arrow portal, which provides open access to conference materials and papers.
