Bristol is packed with a great number of independent coffee shops all offering something different to customers, whether that be a range of ways of roasting beans to quirky ways of using them, each has something to offer.
But with such a big scene, how does the city, unlike many others around the country, not have its own coffee festival? Back in 2018, 19 and 20 Bristol did have it's own festival, the Coffee House Project, before the co-founders decided to sell the project. But now, after a couple of years, Bristol will be getting a new festival dedicated to the caffeinated drink.
Joana Vieiralves Wood, from Brazil, has taken on the immense task of creating and running the city’s own coffee festival, which will showcase the drink's talent from across the area. Joana said: “I kept thinking, someone needs to do it. And I thought, I’m going to do it. Why not?”
