Our Story

In a city that drinks more coffee per person than anywhere in the UK, Brighton is home to one of the best coffee scenes in the world. Established in 2019, Brighton Coffee Festival is one of the leading independent coffee festivals in the country. BCF brings together and celebrates everything great about the speciality coffee industry, as well as showcasing the vibrant city of Brighton.

Since its initial inception, BCF has grown tenfold, selling out on both exhibitor and visitor spaces on an annual basis. Post Covid, our sold out 2022 show at One Church lead to us moving to the iconic All Saints on The Drive in 2023. After yet another sold out year and due to demand, 2024 will see BCF become a full weekend festival, adding new elements to the show to enhance the exhibitor and visitor experience.

With one of the strongest coffee scenes across the globe, BCF brings together an abundance of incredible brands on a local, national and international level.

2024 will be showcasing live entertainment including our BCF DJ’s, as well as our annual Latte Art Competition and brand new 2024 activations.
