Roman Bridge will host the live culinary exhibition featuring chefs like Nobu and Dani García.
The proceeds from the culinary event will be donated to the Red Cross entity. Marbella is the Spanish municipality that requires the greatest effort to access housing.
Chefs Nobu Matsuhisa, Izu Ani, Dani García, Yiannis Kioroglou, and Albert Adrià will meet on the upcoming June 2nd at the Puente Romano hotel in Marbella, where they will perform a live culinary exhibition to raise funds for the Red Cross, as reported by the event organizers this Tuesday.
Thus, ‘Culinary Icons’ will again gather these five chefs this year at La Plaza, continuing the success of last year's inaugural edition, which sold out all tickets and welcomed over 200 guests.
During the event, each chef will present and prepare some of their most iconic dishes, reflecting their vision and creative identity. The lineup includes Nobu Matsuhisa, a pioneer of his Japanese cuisine style ‘Nobu’ with Peruvian influences, who has built one of the most recognized restaurant brands in the world.
The roster is completed by British-Nigerian chef Izu Ani, known as a pioneer of the modern gastronomic scene in Dubai and whose restaurants GAIA have loyal followers internationally; while Dani García is the only Andalusian chef to have held three Michelin stars.
This year, chefs Yiannis Kioroglou, who leads the kitchens at La Petite Maison on the French Riviera, and Albert Adrià, whose restaurant Enigma in Barcelona is part of The World's 50 Best Restaurants list, make their debut at the culinary event.
Adrià, awarded the ‘Estrella Damm Chefs' Choice Award 2025, will be responsible for closing the exhibition with the dessert, returning to his roots as a pastry chef, where he began his extraordinary career at the legendary El Bulli.
The proceeds will go to the Red Cross
In the outdoor setting of La Plaza, attendees of the culinary event will see each chef present their dish on stage before tasting the five creations at their table, prepared by the restaurant teams and accompanied by wines, beers, and soft drinks.
Ticket sales are priced at 250 euros per person, with proceeds going to the Spanish Red Cross, thus continuing the charitable commitment established in the inaugural edition.
Daniel Shamoon, owner of Puente Romano Marbella, highlighted that "the success of last year's inaugural edition demonstrated that ‘Culinary Icons’ has become a milestone in the international culinary calendar".
“Welcoming Albert Adrià along with chefs Nobu, Izu Ani, Dani García, and Yiannis Kioroglou, who donate their time and talent in support of the Spanish Red Cross, is a source of pride for the resort and for all involved," he remarked.
