Coffee from 35 Tokai-area roasters and cafés, food stalls and a park setting: Nagoya Coffee Expo (珈琲博覧日2026) returns on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, from 10:00 to 17:00. The public-holiday event takes place at Hisaya-odori Park and FabCafe Nagoya.
The main attraction is the chance to try different coffees and talk to the people who roast them. Stone-oven pizza, curry and sweets give you reasons to stay for more than a quick cup. This is the event’s fifth edition.

The subway is a practical way to arrive, given the short walk and lack of event parking. The venues include both park spaces and FabCafe Nagoya, so check the location of any particular session you want to attend. The official Nagoya tourism listing also provides event information.
Coffee, food and collaborations
The 35 participating businesses include independent roasters and cafés from across the Tokai region. Rather than choosing only by a familiar shop name, use the opportunity to ask about beans and roasting styles, then try a coffee that sounds appealing.
Food options include stone-oven pizza, curry and sweets. Those are useful choices if your group wants lunch as well as coffee, although individual menus and prices need to be checked with the organizers or vendors.
A collaboration with tumbler brand STTOKE is also planned. The available information does not explain the offer or participation rules, so do not assume that bringing a tumbler qualifies you for a discount.
For a different kind of café outing, our Starbucks Japan × Pokémon article covers the announced drinks and merchandise. Check its dates and current availability separately from this festival.
Indoor talks and seminars
The official promotional images introduce an indoor program alongside the outdoor coffee stalls. Three parts are advertised, covering a JBrC2026 report, coffee from Laos and Nagoya coffee cups.
| Part | Advertised subject |
|---|---|
| 1 | JBrC2026 report session |
| 2 | Laos coffee seminar |
| 3 | Nagoya coffee cups |
Part 1: JBrC2026 report session
The first poster announces a report session on JBrC2026. Check the official program for the speaker, start time and attendance arrangements before planning your visit around it.
Part 2: Laos coffee seminar
The second session focuses on Laos coffee. Its tasting format, participation fee and booking arrangements are not specified in the available information.
Part 3: Nagoya coffee cups
The third part turns to coffee cups. If this is your main reason for visiting, confirm the session details in advance. English-language support is not specified for any of the talks.
Stamp rally and other activities
A stamp rally is part of the event. The poster advertises a chance to win a prize after collecting three stamps, with coffee equipment and sweets pictured among the prizes. It does not establish that every participant receives a prize. Check how stamps are earned and where to take a completed card.
Another announcement features live music, a wooden capsule-machine activity and oversized coffee brewing, under the labels LIVE, tanji and Giant Coffee. Treat these as advertised highlights: their schedules, costs and participation methods still need to be confirmed.
