The Best Croissant Competition is coming back to New York in 2026!
The event will take place on Tuesday, May 19th, from 6pm to 8pm at 5th&Mad in Manhattan.
The best bakeries in the New York area will present their viennoiseries, and you will be able to go from stall to stall, tasting their croissants and other delicious specialties, and vote to determine who will get the People’s Choice Award. A jury of professionals will also be present: after performing a blind tasting of all the croissants in competition, they will name the winner of the Grand Prix.
✨ We need your help finding our finalists!
Vote here to determine which bakeries will be able to take part in this delicious competition!
