March 26 to April 6 Champions Burger gastro festival in Murcia

Vote for the best hamburger in Spain at this 10-day event in the city of Murcia!

From March 26 to April 6 the city of Murcia is again hosting the The Champions Burger, billed as Spain’s biggest burger festival, with 24 food trucks travelling around Spain as they attempt to win the title of best gourmet burger in Spain.

This year Murcia is the third stop on the nationwide tour, following Almería and Logroño, and visitors to the Jardín Chino in Murcia (click for map) can try a variety of burgers, as well as plenty of beer, as well as enjoying live music and a fun, family-friendly atmosphere.

Last year the burger festival was a resounding success in cities such as Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Malaga, Cordoba, Seville, Zaragoza and Castellón de la Plana, attracting thousands of visitors.

Entry to The Champions Burger is completely free, but you have to pay for the burgers and drinks. Opening hours are 6pm to 12 midnight on weekdays and 12 midday to 12 midnight on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.

Attendees will have the opportunity to rate the burgers they have tried by scanning a QR code and voting based on the quality of the bread, the meat, the combination of ingredients, presentation and originality. In addition, vegetarian and vegan options will be offered at participating restaurants, available on request.

Among the competitors are Gula Supreme, Jisma, Más Ké Tapas and Proper Burger, all from Murcia, while others from around the country include Street Food Burger, Jenkin’s, La Muralla, Dak Burger, The Vicbros Burger, Soul Coffee Beer, Godeo, Nola Smoke, Rico, Tarantín Chiflado, Tokio, Vacarnal and Circo.
