On the afternoon of this Tuesday, November 26, Murcia hosts the gastronomy festival par excellence with the gala presentation of Stars in the Michelin Guide 2025. The Víctor Villegas Auditorium and Congress Center in Murcia has dressed in its best clothes – or jackets – to welcome chefs from all over Spain on a magical night.
There has been no lack of emotion, talent, or good gastronomy in a very special evening for those who achieve new stars and those who revalidate them. The Michelin Guide distributes different recognitions ranging from one to three Stars, the Green Star, the recommendation or the Bib Gourmand seal, and although they are all a reason for celebration and pride, each one has a different nuance.

As explained in the guide, they are the restaurants for which it’s worth going out of your way to enjoy unique cuisine in a refined and inspiring place.
