The MICHELIN Guide announces a new national Austrian selection in 2025

• The MICHELIN Guide is partnering with the Austrian National Tourist Office and 8 Austrian regional tourism associations, for the launch of a new national Austrian selection.
• The upcoming MICHELIN Guide Austria selection will be released in January 2025.
• This project underscores the rise of Austria as a captivating, global destination with great diversity, ranging from restaurants to hotels, from dazzling urban areas to regional wonders.

The MICHELIN Guide unveiled today a new page of its history with Austria, with an upcoming 2025 national selection. The Guide’s famously anonymous inspectors have been deep-diving into the Austrian culinary landscape since 1983 with the reveal of the very first Vienna selection, followed by Salzburg in 1986.

Since 2010, Vienna and Salzburg have been part of the MICHELIN Guide Main Cities of Europe edition, but since the Covid-19 crisis, starting in 2020, the Guide decided to highlight each destination of the Main Cities of Europe selection individually and stop producing this collective edition. With the increasing potential of the gastronomic offer in Central and Eastern Europe, the Guide’ scope extended (from a Budapest selection to a global Hungarian one for instance).

Gourmets and food lovers of the first hour will remember the first national edition of the MICHELIN Guide Austria, printed from 2005 to 2009. Committed to highlighting world-class destinations on a long-term basis, the MICHELIN Guide has started a partnership with the Austrian National Tourist Office and 8 regional tourism associations, to ensure the deployment of marketing and promotional activities to a worldwide audience with a sustainable economic approach.
