PUB20 THE WORLD OF HOSPITALITY 31 The focus on food continues with the Taste Table, in partnership with Brew City and supported by Rational and Brakes, featuring new celebrity chef presentations, guided tastings and demonstrations. PUB20 really is the perfect place to pick up tips and trends, get great advice and inspiration for all things edible and profitable. The show will be full of new ideas too, such as Fever Tree’s DrinkX installation – themed around immersive experiences, innovation and turnkey solutions to bring your pub or bar to life. Pubs are the glue that hold society together, so this year PUB20 will celebrate the people who are all about humanity and hospitality, with their brand-new awards. Designed to recognise the passion of publicans who drive the dynamic pub industry forward, along with pub chefs who are giving the sector a culinary makeover, The Pub Awards will champion the very best pubs in the UK. Winners will be announced on Tuesday 4th February 2020 during a special ceremony at PUB20. There are new take-away trends to digest, with ‘The PUB Trends Report’ back for a second year – so if you’ve ever wanted to know what your customers look for most in a landlord, be sure to grab a copy!
