It sounds like, from the people who do attend, it would be tragic to lose. I can’t speak to what’s going on in Ireland, but I can say from organizing a variety of culinary events here that it does feel like fatigue has set in for some regular attendees of these kinds of events. I don’t have data on this, but my feeling is people who truly care about food systems and not just trendy food, tend to also care about the world we live in and right now that world is oppressive.
Was mine and my partners first year attending and honestly it would be such a shame if this event does keep going we’re both young chefs and an event like this is such an incredible source of inspiration and such an important moment for us being able to listen and talk with our idols and meet and find new idols new friends new passions and interests. This is what the industry needs and I hope to visit the event every year as long as it’s running.
I look forward to the day when my sons attend with their hotel mgt. colleges in toe. I know they will be inspired in a way no college could ever teach.
In order for this to happen, It's time for a rebrand and unfortunately, more commercial thinking.
Hi Chef JP, This is sad to hear about Food on the Edge. I have never been to Ireland and was hoping to next year. If it works out, I will make sure to visit you and continue the food and global conversation. Love, Elizabeth Falkner

Thanks Fergus.
It would be an absolute tragedy to lose FOTE. It has been a highlight of the last decade and what you’ve all achieved is phenomenal.
