WE'RE SMART® WORLD DAY 2020 POSTPONED DUE TO CORONAVIRUS

Luxembourg. Due to the global crisis surrounding the Coronavirus (COVID-19), the different governments recommended postponing all events indefinitely. This also means that the WE'RE SMART WORLD DAY will be postponed with the launch of the WE'RE SMART GREEN GUIDE on 4 May 2020 in Coque in the Grand Duchy.

Make a note of the new date of the event in your calendar: Monday 21 September, same program, same venue.

Together with all those involved in the organisation team, we have decided to launch the We're Smart Green Guide in 2 phases.

Online launch of new restaurants and radishes on 4 May

May 4th remains the launch date for the new We're Smart® Green Guide 2020 with its new restaurants and new radishes (more than 950 restaurants in 42 countries).  All information will then be delivered digitally, both to the media, to the restaurants and partners involved, and to the general public via newsletters and social media.  

We will also announce already the Awards for 'Best Veggie & Best Vegan Restaurants of the World'.

"The Week of Fruit and Vegetables©" with cauliflower and grapefruit as fruit and vegetable of the year and the We're Smart® Academy will be explained more elaborately.

We're Smart World Day on 21 September

On Monday 21/9 the event in Luxembourg will continue with the same scenario and theme. We will focus on the We're Smart® Future Awards 2020, the We're Smart® Best Vegetables Restaurants Awards 2020 (13 countries) and the new TOP100 Best Vegetables Restaurants© World 2020.

During that event, 6 well-known vegetable restaurants will provide an exceptional vegetable reception.
