Le Marquier invites you to Barbecue Expo 2026
Outdoor cooking enthusiasts have already marked the date in their diaries: Barbecue Expo 2026 is shaping up to be one of the major events of the year for everyone passionate about barbecue, grilling and cooking over fire.
For this new edition, Le Marquier will once again be there to share its know-how, its passion for convivial cooking and its equipment dedicated to the art of cooking outdoors.
On our stand: cooking demonstrations, meetings with barbecue experts, a chance to discover our products and even a few surprises we can't wait to unveil to visitors.
This 2026 edition promises to be particularly rich in activities, with the exceptional presence of a renowned guest from the barbecue world: Diva Q.
Barbecue Expo: the must-attend event for barbecue enthusiasts
Since its creation, Barbecue Expo has established itself as the major event in France dedicated to barbecue cooking and, more broadly, outdoor cooking.
Every year, this show brings together:
- the biggest brands in the sector
- manufacturers of equipment and accessories
- chefs and barbecue experts
- culinary influencers
- and of course thousands of passionate visitors
The success of Barbecue Expo rests on a simple recipe: letting the public discover the latest trends in cooking over fire while offering an immersive and convivial experience.
Visitors can discover new equipment, watch spectacular cooking demonstrations, learn cooking techniques and talk directly with brands and barbecue specialists.
In this dynamic, mouth-watering environment, Le Marquier is proud to represent French outdoor cooking know-how.
This French know-how is also praised by the press. Ce Que Pensent Les Hommes presented the latest LE MARQUIER novelties, as well as the Hossegor plancha, a limited edition of 199 numbered pieces made in our workshops in the Landes, and shared our 5 secrets for a successful plancha party. For its part, Le Particulier (Le Figaro) tested two high-end electric planchas made in France, including ours, and Trucs de mec presents LE MARQUIER as a French plancha brand that is “accessible premium”.
An exceptional guest: Diva Q
This year, our stand will have the honour of welcoming a leading figure of the international barbecue scene: Danielle Bennett, better known as Diva Q.
Diva Q is one of the most influential figures in modern barbecue. A cookbook author, culinary consultant and recognised specialist in barbecue cooking techniques, she has helped popularise barbecue culture around the world.
She is also known for her many appearances on cooking shows and for demonstrations that combine technique, teaching and a passion for cooking over fire.
Her presence at Barbecue Expo 2026 is a unique opportunity for visitors to:
- attend demonstrations given by an international expert
- discover professional cooking techniques
- ask questions and chat with a real pitmaster
- enjoy a convivial moment around barbecue cooking
For enthusiasts and the curious alike, meeting Diva Q on our stand will undoubtedly be one of the highlights of the show.
Cooking demonstrations throughout the show
Throughout Barbecue Expo 2026, the Le Marquier stand will offer a rich programme of cooking demonstrations.
These moments are always very popular with visitors because they let them see the equipment in action and discover simple, tasty recipe ideas to recreate at home.
Our teams and guests will showcase different ways of cooking outdoors:
- perfectly controlled grilling
- slow, flavourful cooking
- creative recipes with meat, fish or vegetables
- practical tips for cooking success
These demonstrations perfectly illustrate Le Marquier's philosophy: offering equipment that lets you cook easily, with pleasure and in a spirit of conviviality.
Because beyond technique, barbecue cooking is above all a moment of sharing.
New products unveiled in preview
Barbecue Expo is also a strategic moment for brands wishing to present their innovations.
On this occasion, Le Marquier will use the show to unveil several new products that will enrich our outdoor cooking universe.
Some of these innovations will be presented exclusively on our stand, giving Barbecue Expo visitors the chance to discover the next evolutions of our range in a sneak preview.
These launches reflect our constant desire to:
- offer ever more efficient equipment
- improve the outdoor cooking experience
- meet the expectations of fire-cooking enthusiasts
- keep moving the outdoor cooking universe forward
Show visitors will thus be able to discover these novelties, talk with our teams and understand the inspirations behind their design.
