Onwards to Antwerp 2027!
Last Friday, we had the pleasure of welcoming many potential partners for the AEHT European Conference 2027—a special edition, as in 2027 AEHT Belgium vzw will host the 40th annual conference in the heart of Antwerp.
AEHT Belgium is an active network of 15 hotel, tourism, and higher education schools spread across Belgium, and has long been committed to international collaboration within the hospitality sector.
From 22 to 27 November 2027, we will welcome around 1,100 international participants: students, teachers, jury members, and directors from 24 countries. During this five-day event, 440 students from hotel, food, and tourism schools will compete in 14 disciplines, ranging from culinary arts and service to hotel management, baking, and tourism.
🤝 Students are randomly matched with participants from other countries—placing collaboration (in English!) at the heart of the experience.
But AEHT is about more than just competition. It is a unique meeting place where young people from 150 schools inspire each other, push boundaries, and build international connections.
Collaboration Wanted
We warmly invite organizations to join us in supporting this large-scale event.
Your support not only adds significant value to the organization but also provides a prime opportunity to connect with the future Belgian and European professionals in hospitality, tourism, and food.
📩 Interested in collaborating? We would be happy to discuss how we can support each other.
