Creative Coffee Events 2026

Bringing the coffee world closer to you.

This platform has evolved into an intimate educational event to encourage the growth of our local industry and also to celebrate the work that is already taking place. It is expensive for us South Africans to travel the world for the passion we share with our customers everyday, through these events we hope to bring you some inspiration and break the boundaries, creating global events in our very own cities.

1 x Brewing Competition + Workshops + Activations - JHB, date TBD

Testimonials

“Thank you so much for hosting me at Creative Coffee Week. It’s been truly great! It is inspiring to see the amount of passion and drive invested in your local coffee community.”
Patrik Rolf, April Coffee

It’s an opportunity to experience a bit more of the fun and exploratory side of Coffee. I think Creative Coffee Week definitely has a different approach to your generic convention - a creative, curious approach. It’s also got a community approach and aims to unite an industry. There’s a lot of learning, a lot of discussion, there’s also a lot of fun - those kind of events are important.
Sebastian Schneider, Motherland Coffee Company

Creative Coffee Week is the coffee event the SA Coffee Community didn’t know it needed. This is the perfect space for us to connect, learn and network without the distractions of customers and sales. Every year feels like a coffee retreat!
Winston Thomas, Cedar Coffee
