Tallinn Coffee Festival Tallinn

The Tallinn Coffee Festival is an annual highlight for lovers of aromatic hot drinks and has become one of the most important events in the Baltic coffee scene since its inception in 2017. It is organized by Profexpo, an experienced Estonian event company specializing in high-quality trade and public exhibitions.

The festival welcomes both industry professionals—such as baristas, café and restaurant owners, and representatives of the coffee trade—as well as the general public, from passionate coffee drinkers to entire families. Admission is free for children up to the age of twelve, reflecting the event’s family-friendly spirit.

Held at the Tallinna Kultuurikatel, a former power station in the heart of Estonia’s capital, the venue’s modern design and flexible layout provide the perfect setting for an event that blends design with coffee culture in a unique way.

Choosing the Kultuurikatel is a deliberate decision: the venue stands for transformation, creativity, and a forward-looking mindset. It highlights Tallinn’s identity as an innovative and open-minded capital that not only embraces trends but actively shapes them. The festival enhances the city’s reputation as a hub for innovation, design, and indulgence.

At its core, the festival celebrates the diversity and quality of coffee and other hot beverages. Visitors can explore a wide variety of specialty coffees, premium teas, hot chocolate, and creative alternative drinks. Expert talks, workshops, and presentations by leading professionals from Estonia and across Europe offer deeper insights into coffee appreciation, covering both traditional and modern brewing methods.

The festival plays a significant role in the evolution of Estonia’s coffee and beverage culture, which has shifted in recent years from conventional consumption to a more mindful and quality-focused experience. It provides a platform for local roasters, inventive baristas, and regional producers, while also encouraging dialogue with international players in the industry.

A standout feature is the barista competition, where professionals showcase their skills in a range of disciplines, impressing audiences with precision, creativity, and craftsmanship. The festival is further enriched by live music, performances, and culinary offerings, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

With its aim to promote coffee culture in Estonia and bring enthusiasts together, the Tallinn Coffee Festival offers an experience that goes far beyond a traditional trade fair. It combines taste, knowledge, and community in an inspiring urban setting—turning every visit into a journey through the rich and varied world of coffee.

The Tallinn Coffee Festival takes place annually, and therefore for the 10th time previsibly in April 2026 in Tallinn.
