From November 30 to December 2, 2025, Longarone Fiere Dolomiti will host an unmissable event for gelato lovers and professionals: the MIG Experience 2025. This event promises to be a great return for the sector, bringing together gelato makers from all over Italy and beyond to explore the latest innovations and trends in the world of artisanal gelato.
A Unique Opportunity for the Sector
During the official presentation of the event, Chiara Bortolas, a member of the Fair's Board of Directors, emphasized the importance of MIG Experience not just as an exhibition, but as a true journey into the culture of gelato. "We want this event to be accessible to both professionals and enthusiasts, young and old," declared Bortolas. Visitors will have the opportunity to taste a wide range of flavors, from vegan gelatos to healthy options, as well as local products made with PDO and PGI ingredients.
The event's program will also include a special focus on the Veneto Region, showcasing its gastronomic excellences in the field of gelato.
Innovation and Training
MIG Experience 2025 stands out for its training offerings, catering not only to experienced gelato makers but also to students from culinary schools and food processing programs. A key highlight will be the "Gelato on the Road" project, which aims to connect European gelaterias, offering participants the chance to discover and taste gelato from various realities across the continent.
The event will address innovative themes, as demonstrated by Marta Poletti from Appia CNA, who will highlight the openness to new flavors and the celebration of gastronomic culture. At the heart of the discussion will be the importance of innovation in craftsmanship, emphasizing the use of artificial intelligence and new technologies in the sector.
Wellness Flavors and Scientific Research
An innovative aspect of MIG Experience 2025 will be the presentation of flavors enriched with health-beneficial ingredients such as collagen and omega-3. Francesca Gorini from the National Research Council explained how research on Neurogastronomy could reveal the cognitive benefits of these ingredients. "We want to explore how these foods can improve cognitive functions and also serve a preventive action," Gorini said.
Conclusion: A Bright Future for Artisanal Gelato
MIG Experience 2025 will not only be a showcase event but a true platform for dialogue, growth, and the promotion of new ideas for the future of artisanal gelato. In conclusion, Chiara Bortolas thanked the trade associations, sponsors, and partners who support the initiative.
