Cuenca Spanish Capital of Gastronomy 2023

Cuenca will be the Spanish Capital of Gastronomy next 2023, taking over from Sanlúcar de Barrameda, which has held the distinction this year.


The Spanish Capital of Gastronomy is an annual event created by the Spanish Federation of Tourism Journalists and Writers (FEPET) together with the Spanish Hospitality Federation (FEHR) to recognize the city that has stood out the most in promotion, at a national level. and international, of gastronomy as one of the main attractions for tourism in Spain. This award, in its history, increases the number of visitors to the cities that hold it, a fact that we hope will benefit, not only Cuenca, but the towns of the province. From an economic point of view, it will mean an increase in business in the hospitality sector and in the primary sector, responding to greater demand from local producers, the main attraction of Cuenca's gastronomy. Without a doubt, a great boost for the city of Cuenca.
