The prestigious Michelin Guide has revealed the time and place of the next Michelin Great Britain & Ireland awards.

Going to have to update that last digit soon

If you looked at the header photo and thought to yourself “that's not jolly old Blighty,” well, you're right. The next annual reveal of which restaurants in Great Britain and Ireland get (or lose) the coveted Michelin stars will be held in Ireland. Hosted at the Convention Centre in Dublin on 9 February 2026, this will mark the first time the awards ceremony is held in Ireland, marking a milestone for the country's culinary scene. Though far from a guarantee as previous editions have proven (looking at you, Manchester 2024), hosting the ceremony is generally regarded as promising for the host city as far as new star recipients go.

In any case, we'll be following along close to bring you up-to-date info on which Manchester restaurants win their first, second, or even third stars, so make sure to check back on the day. In the meantime, you can brush up on your Manchester Michelin restaurants here.
