What’s on: talks room
Glasgow Coffee Festival is, as many of you know, Scotland’s Biggest Coffee Party! While this is very exciting and high energy, like any party, sometimes you need to take a moment to chill out and take things at a slower pace.
Luckily, doing so at GCF doesn’t mean missing out on any coffee action, thanks to our Talks, Workshops and Cupping Rooms.
introducing: GCF Talks Room
First up is our Talks Room. Located halfway down and to the left of the main Briggait hall, the Talks Room is the place to hear stories from coffee business owners and innovators about their journey. Whether you’re thinking of starting your own coffee venture or just want to hear from your faves, you’re guaranteed to find something of value in each session.
