THE MICHELIN GUIDE HANOI | HO CHI MINH CITY | DA NANG 2025 IS SET TO TAKE PLACE ON 5 JUNE 2025

This year’s MICHELIN Guide Ceremony Hanoi | Ho Chi Minh City | Da Nang is scheduled to take place on Thursday, June 5, at the InterContinental Danang Sun Peninsula Resort – nestled along the coast of one of Vietnam's most dynamic cities. 

Returning with its one-night format that proved highly successful last year, featuring the official announcement of the MICHELIN Guide restaurant selection, a premium cocktail reception, and a live stream to engage a broader audience, this prestigious and exclusive event will not only unveil the annual MICHELIN Guide selection for Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, and Da Nang; celebrate the accomplishments of vibrant culinary communities in these 3 cities; but also serve as an opportunity for these communities to unite and inspire one another to reach new heights.

Bringing together a diverse array of distinguished guests from the culinary world, including chefs, restaurateurs, industry professionals, representatives of the MICHELIN Guide’s official partners, and both local and international media, this invitation-only event serves as a platform to honor culinary excellence and encourage collaboration and inspiration within Vietnam’s vibrant gastronomic communities.

At the event, the MICHELIN Guide Hanoi | Ho Chi Minh City | Da Nang 2025 selection including the MICHELIN Guide Special Awards, the MICHELIN Guide Selected, the Bib Gourmand restaurant selection for Hanoi | Ho Chi Minh City | Da Nang (to be announced one week prior to the ceremony through a press release) and the much-awaited MICHELIN Stars - will be announced.

All dining establishments in the selection are assessed and rated by anonymous MICHELIN Guide inspectors, according to 5 universal criteria: quality of the ingredients; mastery of cooking techniques; the harmony of the flavors; personality of the cuisine; and consistency over time and throughout the menu. These criteria are applied across all destinations globally, ensuring a consistent and fair selection, as well as a uniform and international standard of excellence. The excitement towards this prestigious event will continue further with a premium cocktail reception, prepared by exclusively curated MICHELIN Starred and MICHELIN Selected restaurants - both from Vietnam and abroad. This allows guests to savor unique and memorable dining experiences, up-close and personal.
