The legendary chef Michel Roux Jnr will be leading a world-class line-up of experts for their first-ever Festival of Food & Wine on Queen Mary 2 in 2020.
The seven-night transatlantic crossing from 7 to 14 June 2020 will bring together leading authorities in the food and wine industry, with Michel, famed for his Michelin-starred London restaurant Le Gavroche, leading the way.
He will indulge guests in a feast of the senses with a series of hosted dinners in The Verandah restaurant as well as a three-course signature gala menu in the Britannia Grill.

Le Gavroche’s Executive Chef, Rachel Humphrey, will also be holding a cooking demonstration and a Q&A during the crossing.
Michel said: “I am thrilled to be joining Cunard on the first ever Festival of Food & Wine voyage alongside a host of experts in their fields.
“For the first time ever I will be taking Le Gavroche to sea – offering spectacular menus for guests to enjoy across the week. This will be a very special voyage, and I can’t wait to get on board.”
Steven Spurrier, celebrated wine critic and visionary behind the legendary Judgement of Paris, will take part in a talk, Q&A and wine tastings, while award-winning wine writer and columnist Will Lyons and Food editor Lisa Markwell will also be offering their insight and knowledge.
There will also be the opportunity to join the Cunard Wine Academy and gain a WSET Level 1 award during the crossing, a recognised qualification by the Wine and Spirit Education Trust.
