Bengaluru to host India International Coffee Festival in February 2027
Bengaluru will host the third India International Coffee Festival in February 2027 to promote the country's growing coffee industry. The event aims to connect growers, roasters, and consumers while highlighting the expansion of coffee culture in India.
Why it matters
The festival reflects the rising domestic consumption of coffee in India and the country's increasing role in the global coffee market.
India’s coffee industry is gearing up for its next phase of growth as the India International Coffee Festival (IICF) returns to Bengaluru from February 26 to 28, 2027.
Organised by the Coffee Board of India in association with the Specialty Coffee Association of India (SCAI), the third edition of IICF will bring together growers, roasters, café brands, baristas, equipment manufacturers, and coffee consumers on a farm-to-cup platform.
The event comes as domestic coffee consumption shows significant room for expansion. While cities account for nearly 70% of consumption and southern India contributes 75-80% of the country’s coffee consumption, coffee is gaining popularity in northern, western and eastern markets. India’s per-capita coffee consumption remains at just 0.07 kg annually, compared with the global average of 1.3 kg.
