Coffee festival

What is roast!?

The festival is intended for everyone who is just a little bit interested in the world of specialty coffee. It doesn't matter if you are a professional in the industry, a coffee enthusiast or if you tasted your first v60 yesterday and are just getting acquainted. And if the caffeine gets to be too much for you - the festival offers an alternative in the form of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks and savoury and sweet treats.

Espresso done right

Would you like an espresso or maybe a capucchino? That and much more is waiting to be tasted by you at our especially busy espresso bars. During the festival, there will be many different roasters on rotation, each with their own coffee to show off.

Filtered coffee of all kinds

Filtered coffee, this is a different discipline. V60, Chemex, Aeropress or Coldbrew? You can also taste these coffees at our brew bars. We give roasters complete freedom to choose the preparation that best suits their beans.

Workshops

You don't just want to watch, you want to experience it for yourself? Discover the ins and outs of coffee roasting, cupping, alternative preparations, experimental flavour pairing and much more. Our professional baristas will guide you through everything and will be happy to answer any questions.

Lectures

Again this year you can look forward to a wide range of lectures on all possible and impossible topics. Our special guests will guide you through the nooks and crannies of coffee technology, chemistry or culture you may not have known existed.

Ochutnávat kávu dva dny v kuse není jednoduché, proto pro Vás máme v nabídce i další občerstvení všeho druhu. Pivo, limonádu, kávové i jiné kokteily, slané i sladké jídlo, vodní dýmky... Na co si vzpomenete.
Specialty coffee to buy
Tasting coffee for two days in a row is not easy, that's why we also offer other snacks of all kinds. Beer, lemonade, coffee-based and other cocktails, salty and sweet food, hookahs... Whatever you can think of.
Festival merchandise
As well as coffee, we also have various other coffee products available for purchase. Plus, special Roast! Festival merch.

Previous year

Roast! 2025 will be the third Roast we are preparing for you. In 2023, when the festival was founded, we tried for the first time what it is like to prepare a coffee festival and whether such an event has its place in Brno. We found out that it does. By the next edition, Roast 2024, the festival had more than doubled in size and exceeded all our expectations.
