BANGKOK, Thailand – ICONSIAM is hosting the ICONIC CRAFT COFFEE EXPO 2026 through September 20, featuring specialty coffee, creative beverages, food, and lifestyle experiences from Thailand and overseas. Held under the theme “ICON OF COFFEE METROPOLIS” at ICONSIAM Hall and Suralai Hall on the seventh floor, the five-day event offers more than 1,000 coffee menus across six themed Coffee Districts.
The Local Gems District features specialty coffee shops, roasters, and quality Thai beans, while Thonburian Vibes presents more than 30 food and beverage businesses from Bangkok’s Thonburi area. The Global Flavor District offers specialty coffee from more than 12 countries, including Brazil, Türkiye, and Vietnam, along with five competition-grade selections such as Brazil Pink Bourbon and Panama Geisha. Visitors can also explore exclusive ICONIC MENU creations, popular drinks and desserts, premium coffee experiences, and food-and-coffee pairings.
Baristas are competing in the Thailand ICONIC Coffee and Creativity Championship 2026, creating original beverages inspired by the event theme before finalists face a challenge to sell 50 drinks within 60 minutes. Winners will be announced on September 20. Visitors can also join the Thai Coffee Association’s free “Drip by ME” workshop at ICS, opposite ICONSIAM, with five sessions available daily.
Environmental activities include ICONSIAM’s GO GREEN program and “ZERO Cup to Landfill” campaign, which encourages visitors to separate used cups and other materials at Return Stations for reuse through community programs. The expo, which began on September 16, gives coffee lovers an opportunity to discover flavors, cultures, and creative coffee experiences from Thailand and around the world. (NNT)
