The story

Vienna Coffee Festival in Vienna

Vienna Coffee Festival gathers dozens of specialty roasters, baristas and equipment makers under one roof for tastings, competitions and demonstrations, a contemporary counterpoint to the city's traditional coffeehouse culture. Started in 2015 with a small crowd, it has grown substantially and changed venues as attendance increased.

The Vienna Coffee Festival opened in 2015 at the Ottakringer Brewery with about 1,500 visitors, a modest scale for a city with a coffeehouse culture recognized by UNESCO as part of its intangible cultural heritage.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Where Vienna's famous coffeehouses serve a single, traditional style of coffee in wood-paneled rooms, this festival gathers the opposite approach in one space -- dozens of independent specialty roasters, brewing equipment makers and competitive baristas from the international specialty coffee circuit, set up as an industrial-hall expo rather than a sit-down cafe experience

02

The mystery stays covered

Roughly forty-five-minute workshops run throughout the event covering latte art, brewing science, water chemistry and the practicalities of running a coffee shop, pitched at both first-time visitors and working baristas, which organizers describe as the actual heart of the festival rather than a sideshow to the tasting stalls
