It’s nearly here. Can you feel it? Competition season is stirring, and with it more details are emerging for the year’s major events. Today brings with it an exciting announcement from the Coffee Masters tournament at London Coffee Festival, a grand reveal of precisely whom will be competing in this year’s event happening April 7th-10th in Shoreditch, London. Tickets are on sale now and moving fast, including VIP tickets for a special service from the coffee & food wizards at Scandinavian Embassy, our 2015 Sprudgie Award winner for Best New Cafe.

Coffee Masters this year amounts to a murderers’ row of international entrants—a truly global, no, mega-global cadre of competitive coffee talent to rival any field of any coffee tournament in the world. To fit the field, the Coffee Masters stage is all new and improved, as you can see in the sneak peek images below courtesy of Allegra Events—check out that tiered stadium seating and sleek modern competition floor.
