The World Cheese Awards is the international cheese event. It will be held in Switzerland for the first time from 13 to 15 November 2025. For three days, the Swiss capital will become the “Capital of Cheese”.
The World Cheese Awards 2025, which will be held in Switzerland for the first time from 13 to 15 November, will also mark a premiere in the new Festhalle: it will be the first time that the new Festhalle Bern acts as the venue of a World Championship. Approximately 5000 cheeses from around 50 countries are expected to compete for the coveted awards. During the competition, interested parties will have the opportunity to take a look behind the scenes. Guided tours of the site will reveal not only more about the competition at first hand, but also about the tradition and quality of cheese from Switzerland.
