Costa Verde strengthens partnership with Vagos Sensation Gourmet 2026
Costa Verde once again partnered exclusively with Vagos Sensation Gourmet, renewing a collaboration that has been in place since the event’s very first edition and which has helped establish it as one of Portugal’s most prestigious gastronomic events.
Organised by an outstanding team led by Toni Martins, Portuguese Chef of the Year, Vagos Sensation Gourmet returned to Praia da Vagueira in 2026, bringing together some of the country’s most renowned chefs, producers, brands, and food enthusiasts in an atmosphere of creativity, collaboration and celebration of regional products and traditions.
As the event’s exclusive porcelain partner, Costa Verde was present throughout every gastronomic experience, placing the quality, design and functionality of its collections at the service of the guest chefs’ culinary creations. A particular highlight was the six signature dinners featured in this year’s programme, offering guests unique dining experiences while enhancing the presentation and visual appeal of each dish.
Costa Verde also played an active role on the event’s main stage, supplying the porcelain used during the various live cooking demonstrations and showcooking sessions, further strengthening the connection between haute cuisine and the excellence of Portuguese porcelain.
One of the major innovations of the 2026 edition was a visit to Costa Verde’s production facilities, organised for the chefs participating in the event. This exclusive experience allowed them to discover the company’s manufacturing processes, its continuous commitment to innovation, sustainability and the craftsmanship that has made Costa Verde an internationally recognised name in fine porcelain tableware.
Throughout the festival, Costa Verde porcelain was featured across all dining areas and gastronomic experiences, with particular emphasis on the six signature dinners, where some of the most acclaimed Portuguese and international chefs presented unique culinary creations using the brand’s collections as their stage.
This long-standing partnership reflects Costa Verde’s commitment to gastronomic excellence, the promotion of regional identity and the support of initiatives that celebrate creativity, authenticity and the very best of Portuguese cuisine. More than a partnership, it is a relationship built on shared values of quality, innovation and a passion for the art of hospitality, contributing to the continued success of Vagos Sensation Gourmet as one of Portugal’s leading gastronomic events.
