The industrial courtyards of Technopolis are preparing to host the capital’s largest celebration of coffee culture as the Athens Coffee Festival 2026 opens its gates. Bringing together over 200 specialty brands, micro-roasteries, and international producers, the three-day event bridges the gap between global bean cultivation and urban coffee house trends.
Global Beans and Barista Battles
Visitors navigating the historic gasworks venue can explore single-origin beans sourced from major producing regions including Brazil, Panama, Indonesia, and Peru. Alongside the exhibition booths, the event serves as the official stage for the Greek Coffee Championships, where leading baristas compete in technical precision and sensory evaluation.
For industry professionals and home brewers alike, the “Coffee Matters” educational series provides a deep dive into modern roasting techniques, sustainability, and consumer trends. Seven designated special hosts guide the daily program, linking technical workshops with interactive tasting sessions across the site.
Music, Comedy, and Street Flavor
Beyond the espresso bars and brew stations, the festival layout integrates an extensive entertainment schedule. Live DJ sets from G Pal, Queen G, and Street Outdoors anchor the musical backdrop, while the performance schedule shifts to humor with stand-up sets by Ilias Foundoulis, Angelos Spiliopoulos, and Andreas Paspatis. Street food kiosks round out the grounds, offering pairings designed to complement the heavy coffee presence.
Tickets start at three euros and are available for purchase online through more.com.
