World of Coffee is one of the fastest-growing tradeshows in Europe, bringing together coffee professionals from across the globe with booths, classes, and competitions.

The World Coffee Roasting Championship is a technically grueling competition where roasters must complete multiple sample and production roast batches over the course of multiple days. This competition is one of the fastest growing championships, and it’s an exciting one to make happen, with 4-5 gas-fired production roasters operating on site. You’ll be able to watch the roasters work live onsite by buying a ticket to World of Coffee Warsaw, with registration opening soon.
