Watch brewers go head-to-head, with great coffee, drinks, and prizes all afternoon.

THE BARN x FABRICA X: LONDON BREW UP

18 brewers. One trophy. An afternoon of coffee, drinks, prizes and community.

One year ago, Berlin coffee pioneers The Barn opened their first London location.
To celebrate the anniversary, The Barn and Fabrica X are bringing together London's coffee community for an afternoon of brewing, competition, drinks and prizes.

At the heart of the event is a live V60 brewing competition featuring 18 competitors. Across six heats, brewers will go head-to-head for a place in the semi-final, before battling it out in the final for the title and a stack of prizes from some of specialty coffee's most respected brands.

Think you've got what it takes? You don't need to be a professional barista to enter. If you love coffee, enjoy brewing at home and fancy putting your skills to the test, this competition is for you.

Not competing? You should absolutely still come.

We'll have coffee, beers and drinks flowing throughout the afternoon, retail from The Barn, audience giveaways, challenges and prize draws. Every spectator ticket includes a drink, a bag of coffee and entry into our raffle. Great coffee, great prizes, no competing required.

Whether you're here to compete, cheer someone on or simply spend an afternoon surrounded by great coffee and great people, this is shaping up to be one of the most exciting coffee community events of the summer.
