Food and Drink Industry Dinner 2026

Returning to the iconic Guildhall in the City of London, FDF’s annual black-tie event is the chance to network with industry leaders and catch up with colleagues, peers and clients over a sumptuous dinner in stunning surroundings.

This popular and glamorous event attracts the global brands and the UK’s most ambitious, SMEs, plus key figures from across the sector.

Guests meet for pre-dinner drinks in the East and West Crypts before moving upstairs to the stunning Great Hall for a superb three-course dinner and keynote speeches. The evening then finishes in the Crypts for after dinner drinks and networking.
