EXPOGAST

The world famous gastronomic event!

In 1972, the Vatel Luxembourg organized the first gastronomy, culinary art and pastry fair at the Casino of the European Parliament.

Then the editions followed one another every 4 years: first at the Municipal Circle of the City of Luxembourg and since 1978 at the International Fair in Luxembourg-Kirchberg under the name EXPOGAST.
