World of Coffee Bangkok 2026 is set to put Bangkok firmly on the global specialty-coffee map, taking place from May 7 to 9, 2026 at Bangkok International Trade & Exhibition Centre (BITEC), Hall 98–99, on Bang Na-Trat Road. The event will run daily from 10:00 to 18:00.
After successful editions in Busan in 2024 and Jakarta in 2025, Bangkok becomes the third Asian city to host this prestigious international coffee showcase.
Organized under license from the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) and hosted by the Barista Association of Thailand, the event will bring together coffee professionals from across the world — including producers, roasters, baristas, buyers, and industry leaders.

More than 600 exhibitors from over 40 countries will present the latest innovations in coffee equipment, brewing technology, green coffee sourcing, and roasting techniques. The event is divided into several immersive zones designed for both industry professionals and coffee enthusiasts.
