Summit Opening Reception

​Join us on November 3 at Diane’s Place for an intimate evening designed to help you connect before the Females in Food Summit officially begins.

​Hosted in a smaller setting, the reception is designed to create space for meaningful conversation and relationship-building with Summit speakers, senior leaders, sponsors, and fellow attendees. Rather than a large-scale networking event, this is an opportunity to spend time with people you may want to know throughout the Summit—and beyond.

​Diane’s Place was recognized as one of North America’s best restaurants in 2026, making it an especially memorable setting to kick off the Summit experience.

​The evening will be reception-style and will include food, drinks, and special programming throughout the night.

​Reception tickets are $130 per person and include food, drinks, and programming.

​Space is intentionally limited to 120 guests to preserve the intimate nature of the evening, so we encourage you to reserve your ticket early.

​Come ready to connect, meet new people, and begin building the relationships that will carry into the Summit the following day.
