Another Coffee Festival 2026 Debuts in Singapore with 34 Specialty Roasters from Across Asia and Europe

Singapore’s specialty coffee scene is set for a major new event with the launch of Another Coffee Festival 2026, a four-day celebration of coffee culture, creativity and community that will bring together 34 acclaimed specialty coffee roasters from nine countries and regions across Asia and Europe.

Taking place from 3 to 6 September 2026 at Guoco Tower Urban Park, the inaugural festival aims to present coffee as more than just a beverage by highlighting its cultural, creative and social significance. Visitors can look forward to founder and roaster conversations, interactive tasting experiences, live art installations and opportunities to connect with coffee professionals and enthusiasts from around the world.

The festival is organised by Another Coffee Initiative (ACI), a non-profit collective founded by Singapore coffee entrepreneurs Leon Foo of Morning and Will Leow of Alchemist. The initiative was established to strengthen Singapore’s specialty coffee ecosystem through collaboration, education and community building.

Another Coffee Festival will bring together 19 Singapore based specialty coffee roasters alongside 15 international roasters representing nine countries and regions. The line up showcases a diverse mix of brewing philosophies, coffee origins and creative approaches, offering visitors the opportunity to experience specialty coffee cultures from around the world in one location.

Among the international participants are Fuglen from Norway, Center Coffee from South Korea, Coffee County from Japan, Common Grounds from Indonesia and Yardstick Coffee from the Philippines. They will be joined by well-known Singapore names including PPP Coffee, Tiong Hoe Specialty Coffee and Homeground Coffee Roasters. Several of the overseas roasters will also be making their first appearance in Singapore.

Across the four-day festival, visitors can enjoy curated tastings, exclusive conversations with founders and roasters, creative collaborations, limited edition coffee releases and festival exclusive merchandise. The event is designed to encourage meaningful interactions between coffee lovers and the people behind some of the world’s most respected specialty coffee brands.

At the heart of the festival is a tasting experience built around a reusable festival cup and tasting tokens. Visitors can purchase both and exchange the tokens for coffee from participating roasters throughout the event. The format is intended to make specialty coffee more approachable while encouraging exploration of different brewing methods, coffee origins and flavour profiles.

Blending coffee with art, the festival will also feature South Korean artist and illustrator Moonsub Shin, known professionally as @moonsub, in a special creative collaboration. Widely recognised for his hand drawn illustrations inspired by cafés, coffee culture and everyday life, Moonsub has worked with numerous cafés and specialty coffee brands across South Korea and the United States. He also played an important role in connecting many of the participating Korean roasters with the festival.

Ahead of the festival opening, Moonsub will create a large scale illustrated festival visual wall live on 3 September from 11am. Throughout the event, he will also host daily live illustration sessions where he will produce custom drawings on festival cups. These sessions will take place from 11am to 12pm on 3 and 4 September, and from 10am to 11am on 5 and 6 September, with the final selection curated by the artist.

Another Coffee Festival 2026 will run from 11am to 8pm on 3 and 4 September, and from 10am to 8pm on 5 and 6 September at Guoco Tower Urban Park. Festival cups and tasting tokens will be available for general sale at a later date, while super early pre festival pourer bundles have been available for purchase since 8 July 2026 through the Another Coffee Festival website.
