Pop-up cafes from cherished brands like Because Coffee, Nespresso, Luntian by Luna, Knotty, 24 Bakeshop, El Union, La Marzocco-Yardstick Coffee, and many others will dot Bonifacio High Street South. Visitors can look forward to free product sampling, brewing, and latte art demonstrations, to name a few.
The BGC Coffee Festival packs non-stop activities from morning to night and includes the Philippine AeroPress Championship Competition, the country’s qualifying event for the World AeroPress Championship that will be held in Canada this year. Last year’s Philippine Brewers Cup Champion will give a brewing demo.
All-vinyl DJ Honey, Diego Mapa, and the live musical performances of August Wahh, bird., Ena Mori, and Party Pace will headline the entertainment on the first day. The second day will see fireside chats on a range of topics like Philippine coffee production, Café Culture, Coffee Science, Art and Cycling. It will also feature the Latte Art Throwdown, an event where baristas compete, head to head, pouring out their best latte art in front of spectators.
“Coffee is a universal love language, and BGC is home to numerous unique and well-loved cafes; public art is part of the brand DNA of BGC with our many fun and vibrant murals and art pieces; and biking is a BGCitizen passion point that flourished during the pandemic. We are therefore pleased to open wide the doors of Bonifacio High Street South to coffee aficionados, art lovers, and bikers alike,” said Ms. Sean Luarca, marketing and community relations head of Bonifacio Global City.
Whether you’re a coffee connoisseur or a coffee newbie, an art lover or a biking enthusiast, or one who simply wants a relaxing weekend, the free-for-all BGC Coffee Festival promises to be a feast for your senses.
