1st Cyprus Coffee Festival

1st Cyprus Coffee Festival

A festival dedicated to our most... savoury “bad” habit!

Coffee: Arabic, Greek, Cypriot, Turkish, French or American, Espresso or Cappuccino, boiled or brewed. Whatever you call it, however you make it, coffee is the world's most favourite drink, excluding water.

The Municipality of Lakatamia, in an effort to offer improved services and high quality events to its citizens, introduces the 1st Cyprus Coffee Festival that will take place from 30 September - 1 October 2017 in St. George's Park (Lakatamia Amphitheatre).

This ambitious initiative, which is dedicated to coffee and coffee culture, is aspired to be institutionalised and offer the opportunity for every coffee importing, processing or trading company to come into direct contact with the general public.

At a time that the coffee catering industry in Cyprus is rapidly growing, the Cyprus Coffee Festival has been considered as an imperative by the market itself, while a dynamically increasing number of coffee lovers beginning to invest in the enjoyment of their favourite drink.
