The MICHELIN Guide introduces Mindful Voices to amplify the commitment of inspirational chefs, hoteliers and wine producers
Designed to highlight individuals who, through their commitment and actions, are pioneering new approaches in the fields of gastronomy, hospitality and wine, this new editorial initiative will be rolled out gradually on a global scale, beginning with the event announcing the new Nordic selection on June 1, 2026.
At the same time, the Green Star, which was limited to the culinary arts, will be discontinued.
In step with the Guide’s recent moves into the worlds of hospitality and wine, as well as its rapid international expansion across more than 60 destinations, the MICHELIN Guide has created an editorial concept designed to better capture the unique character of these three expressions of the art of living and to move beyond local borders. Mindful Voices will highlight and share the stories and pioneering practices of chefs, hoteliers and wine producers.
The new Mindful Voices will report – on a global scale – not on the places themselves, but the people who embody them, those who are innovating and launching inspiring initiatives.
It will be introduced across all MICHELIN Guide platforms: digital (web, app, social media) and in print, through profiles of women and men from the worlds of gastronomy, hospitality and wine, and in the MICHELIN Guide magazine, through in-depth features.
Mindful Voices editorial content will be accessible from the magasine section of the MICHELIN Guide website and app.
