Coffee is worth celebrating for. It fills our days with energy, and it never fails to make us feel better on those gloomy, rainy afternoons. But much more than just a feeling, coffee is art and craft. It has shaped many cultures, and it has become one of the most important industries for many countries’ economy. From the growing to the processing, roasting, and brewing: every step hides a world of intricacies and nuances that only years of experience can master.
Thank God you don’t need any of that to enjoy it. Whether you’re a professional expert or someone who simply appreciates the value of each cup of coffee, there are hundreds of events especially thought to indulge our love for caffeine and teach us more about this ever-evolving industry. Support new businesses, try new flavors, make new friends: here are the best coffee festivals in the world you can attend next year!

World of Coffee, Amsterdam
June 21-23, 2018
With a different European city hosting this event each year (this year was Budapest), World of Coffee has become a signature festival for coffee lovers all across Europe. It’s actually Europe’s biggest coffee show, so it’s no wonder it gathers thousands of coffee industry's buyers and influencers. It offers a mix of a trade show, education programmes, social events, and, most importantly, the 2018 World Barista Championship. This year’s looking up to be very promising, so start planning your trip to enjoy the best of the European coffee scene.
CoffeeCon: The Consumer Coffee Festival, United States
February to October, 2018
We’ve put this one on the list because of its uniqueness. CoffeeCon is the world’s first 100% coffee festival made for educational purposes. It features tastings of the best coffees, a showcase of the best brewing gear, and onsite classes to improve your abilities as an at-home barista. Everything that happens in this festival is thought for consumers and their simple love for a cup of coffee. It’s perfect for coffee lovers who are not that much of an expert on the field. This year, CoffeeCon will travel to Los Angeles (Feb 3-4), New York (Apr 7-8), Seattle (Jul, 28-29) and Chicago (Oct, 27-28).
Cafés de Colombia Expo, Bogotá
We wouldn’t be That Coffee Roasters if we forgot about our roots. Cafés de Colombia Expo is the perfect scenario to discover the best of Colombian and Latin American coffee. Some of the most adored brands and products can be found in this traditional festival celebrated in the Colombian capital, Bogotá. Last year, more than 16,000 visitors and 100 exhibitors claimed the spaces of Cafés de Colombia Expo and lived an experience like no other. If there is anyone who takes coffee culture seriously, it’s Latinos. But as with everything else, we also know very well how to have fun! And that should always be the core of our coffee experience: it should always be fun, thrilling, and fascinating!
