THE HAPPETITE 2020 CANCELLED

THE HAPPETITE 2020 is cancelled.

We want to inform you that THE HAPPETITE, scheduled to take place July 1-2 in Milan, has been cancelled due to ongoing concerns related to Covid-19.

Despite the recent easing of the lockdown in Italy, there are still on-going restrictions for organized events and so we do not believe that the conditions exist to deliver an optimal business environment for our THE HAPPETITE participants in July. Health and safety of our clients and our staff is an absolute priority for us and we will not compromise when it comes to it.

We want to thank all our clients and partners for the patience and understanding in these very trying times.

THE HAPPETITE will return in 2021.

In order to allow our customers from the international F&B community to get together in 2020, we are creating content dedicated specifically the international Food & Beverage sector during MAPIC in France (Cannes, November 17-19). Visit our MAPIC website for more info.

Please contact our customer helpdesk for any information concerning the refund options of your registration or its transfer to MAPIC.

We look forward to welcoming you at MAPIC in Cannes or at our events in 2021.

Join The Happetite ‘Food for Thought’ Virtual Talks: A series of three webinars to discuss the future of hospitality post-Covid19.

Hear from restaurant industry leaders and innovative thinkers, and ask your questions during a live Q&A.
