French sushi Championship

The French Sushi Championships were launched in 2017 by Julien Panet. Now they’re back for the 7th edition, which is considered a lucky number in Japan. This year, Sushi Robots, once a dedicated partner, is taking over as organiser of the 2024 French Sushi Championships.

Bringing together the best specialists in Japanese gastronomy, these sushi masters will compete in front of a panel of seasoned professionals. These championships are much more than just a competition - the winner will receive a real accolade*, with the honour of becoming France’s new ambassador at the European Championships, flying the flag for our country.

*Provided that the winner has French nationality in order to represent France.
