How we keep this calendar accurate

The calendar is maintained by Sasha Pavlovich, a barista and coffee educator. We list major festivals, trade shows, competitions and coffee tours that are open to visitors, and link straight to each official event site.

Dates and locations are checked against the organizers' own announcements and updated throughout the year. Events change, so always confirm tickets and times on the official site before you travel.

Coffee events: questions and answers

What is the difference between a coffee festival and a trade show?

Coffee festivals are made for coffee lovers, with tastings, latte art demos, workshops and local roasters. Trade shows are aimed at the industry: café owners, roasters and buyers come to see new equipment, meet green coffee suppliers and attend business talks. Many trade shows also host barista championships.

Can anyone attend a coffee trade show?

Often, yes. Many trade shows sell visitor tickets, but some days or areas are reserved for trade visitors. Check the ticket options on the official event site before you plan a trip.

What is a Caffeine Crawl?

A Caffeine Crawl is a guided coffee tour of a city. Small groups follow a route of local cafés, roasters and craft beverage spots, with tastings and short talks at each stop.

What happens at The Barista League?

The Barista League is a team competition for baristas with creative challenges around service and coffee preparation. Events usually include tastings and a roasters village, so they are fun to visit even if you are not competing.
