The story

Athens Coffee Festival in Athens

Greece's largest coffee event, held at Technopolis in Gazi, bringing together roasters, equipment brands and importers alongside barista competitions, brewing workshops, live music and coffee-based street food across a multi-day trade and public festival. The programme welcomes both industry professionals chasing competition results and casual visitors simply looking to taste widely across the exhibition floor.

Two hundred exhibitor stands under one industrial roof turn Technopolis, the old gasworks complex in Gazi, into a working showroom for an industry that most visitors only ever meet one cup at a time.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The event operates under the auspices of the Specialty Coffee Association's Greek chapter, giving its barista and brewing competitions an internationally recognised judging framework rather than an informal local contest, and it draws roughly 120 exhibiting coffee companies into the industrial halls of Technopolis, the city's former gasworks

02

The mystery stays covered

Unlike a purely trade-focused expo, the festival mixes professional competition stages with public tastings, brewing workshops open to non-specialists, and a live entertainment programme of DJ sets and stand-up comedy, making the specialist side of the coffee trade directly visible and accessible to a general public audience over a three-day run
