2026 Awards Event

For it's inaugural year, the Quality Pet Food Awards will join forces with the market leading UK Quality Food & Drink Awards for the ultimate night of recognition and celebration.

By bringing the two awards together, we're creating an opportunity for our pet food community to connect with a wider network of professionals from across the food, drink and FMCG industries; While the two awards programmes will share the same celebration, the Quality Pet Food Awards will retain their own identity, categories and winners, ensuring that outstanding achievements across the pet food industry receive the specialist recognition they deserve.

Tuesday 10 November | Hilton Bankside, London

A gala dinner, reimagined. Networking will be central to this event experience, with the evening designed to create opportunities for attendees to make new connections and meet fellow entrants, judges, retailers, brands, producers and other industry leaders alongside the formal awards programme.
