Enter Your Cheese In The World Cheese Awards
What are the World Cheese Awards?
Celebrating its 30th year, the World Cheese Awards is the largest cheese competition on the planet, attracting 3,000 entries from 30 different countries.
With an international judging panel made up of 250 experts, including retailers, buyers, cheesemakers and food commentators, and results promoted to cheese lovers across the globe, the World Cheese Awards gives cheese from six continents the chance to shine on the world stage in front of a truly international audience of experts and consumers.
Judges work in teams of four, identifying any cheeses worthy of a bronze, silver or gold award.
Following a record-breaking year in San Sebastián, the World Cheese Awards returns to London in 2017. Taking place at Taste of London Festive Edition at Tobacco Dock on Friday 17 November, the world’s finest cheeses will be judged just in time for Christmas and you can be involved.
