The Story
From a first edition to a national movement
Following the success of the 1st “Banglar Bhoj 2025”, the second edition aims to elevate the experience by connecting Bangladesh's traditional culinary arts with tourism, entrepreneurship, and community engagement.
Banglar Bhoj 2026 is designed as a meeting point for everyone who has a stake in Bengali food — home cooks and hotel chefs, GI-certified rural producers and packaged-food start-ups, folk performers and tour operators, ministries and city authorities.
Over 50,000 visitors — local and foreign — are expected across the festival, making it one of the largest food and cultural gatherings in the country.
