Following a first edition held in 2025, the Publicisdrugstore Food & Wine Festival returns from October 13 to 17, 2026 on the Champs-Élysées. For 5 days, the iconic Parisian venue once again becomes a meeting place dedicated to gastronomy, wine, culinary writing, and the transmission of know-how, as part of the Week of Taste.
This 2nd edition stays true to the same ambition: to bring together the players shaping today's gastronomy. Chefs, artisans, producers, authors and enthusiasts are invited to share their experiences through a programming open to the public, blending tastings, masterclasses, encounters and book signings.
The throughline of this edition is all about transmission—whether it’s culinary techniques, family recipes, local terroir products, or the career paths of chefs. Symbolic of this theme, the madeleine, made famous by Marcel Proust, will play a special role throughout the festival. Visitors will, in particular, be able to sample the Drugstore’s madeleines, still warm.
The chef Éric Frechon, a staple of the festival since its inception, will once again lend his presence to the event. He will be joined, notably, by the chefs Amélie Darvas and Thomas Chisholm, while Bruno Aubin, head chef at Le Drugstore, and pastry chef Léna Thiam will also take part in several engagements showcasing their creations.
The festival will occupy several spaces at the Publicisdrugstore. In addition to tastings and conversations with the guests, a food truck parked on Rue Vernet will offer a gourmet range, while the signature dishes of the invited chefs will be reimagined in a shareable format for the restaurant.
The festival also hosts the 2nd edition of the Literary Prize "All Tastes Have a Story", which honors works that celebrate a culture, a product, or a region through gastronomy. Several authors will meet the public, including Corinne and Richard Zarzavdjian, Tokyobanhbao, Aurélie Chaigneau, Eve Cardi, and Claire Damon, for a series of book-signing sessions.
