The “Beanstock” Coffee Festival is in Vancouver this weekend
“Beanstock” is coming to Vancouver this weekend and I’m just a little bit stoked! Unlimited Coffee, Music, Food and did I mention Coffee?? Check out all you need to know here!
Darren “Danger” Grieve from episode #2 of the “Coffee Cast” and myself have been granted media access to cover on behalf of the “Brenton On Tour” Podcast and DeanBlundell.com and will do just that!
The third Beanstock Coffee Festival invites coffee lovers from Vancouver and beyond to convene on Granville Island and connect with local micro-roasters, sample some of the best craft java in Western Canada, and learn about the importance of socially responsible brew.
“Vancouver is widely considered North America’s epicentre for coffee culture (take that Toronto), which is why we chose the city to host this year’s Beanstock Coffee Festival,” said Mengo McCall, partner. “The event allows us to pay homage to micro-roasters driving the movement to produce artisanal quality brew, while also providing important education about direct trade, single-origin and sustainably grown coffee. We are so excited to treat Vancouver’s coffee-loving community to two days celebrating this intoxicating drink, as well as opportunities to indulge in local food,
craft beer and music.”
Beanstock Coffee Festival will take place at Performance Works on Granville Island, featuring 30 independent micro-roasters, including Agro Coffee Roasters, Luna Coffee, Prototype Coffee, Pallet Coffee Roasters, and Rooftop Coffee Roasters. Early bird tickets start at $25 each, and include two tokens that can be exchanged for 100-gram samples of roasted coffee. VIP Weekend Passes cost $75 and include unlimited priority entry access to both days of the festival; a Beanstock tote bag containing premium samples; and a festival branded ceramic cup for tastings and to take home. The event is open November 2 and 3 between 9:00am and 5:30pm. Tickets can be purchased here!
