LIVE BLOG: Carlow restaurant and top chefs on show at Michelin Star Awards in Dublin

Ireland's top eateries and chefs will all be in attendance for the glitzy and exclusive Michelin Star Awards in Dublin

A ceremony for the awarding of Michelin Star Awards for Great Britain & Ireland in 2026 is being hosted in Dublin on Monday night for the first time since the coveted awards began in 1974.

The prestigious event, known as the "Oscars of the food world", is being held at the Convention Centre, where the Michelin Guide will unveil new Michelin Stars, with plenty of local interest, as only a handful of counties in Ireland don't boast a Michelin Star restaurant. 

Top eateries and chefs from Carlow and around the country will all be in attendance for the glitzy and exclusive affair and we've got a team on the ground bringing you all the results from across Great Britain & Ireland.
