April 10th - CUPPING
Carnivals.fi lisätietonapin tunnus

At Helsinki Coffee Festival, a cupping area will be arranged where roasteries have the opportunity to showcase their coffees to the public and offer visitors an engaging tasting experience.

The cupping area will be located in the central section of the main hall. It is an excellent way to reach new consumer and business customers, and visitors have been hoping for more experiential, interactive program content at the event – exactly what a cupping table provides.

A total of 13 slots are available.

Register your company and preferred slot by email at hello@carnivals.fi.
Slots will be reserved in the order of registration.
