We have seen throughout the years how Bonifacio Global City (BGC) has become a haven for communities. Whether big or small; foodies or art lovers; coffee enthusiasts or running buffs, not only has BGC served as a second home for such groups – it’s where passions have sprung to life.
That’s why this March 23-24, be ready to feel enriched by an exhilarating blend of passion through Art, Bikes and Coffee at BGC’s Coffee Fest! Hosted by events host and former radio DJ Cerah Hernandez, this year sees a bigger comeback of the festival moving to 5th Avenue to house even more merchants, pop-up shops, and workshops!
Coffee Fest promises an unforgettable celebration of culture and camaraderie during its 2-day run, wherein everyone who drops by 5th Avenue will be greeted by an array of artists, music, live art, premium bike shops, and vendors for an epic, passion-filled time.
Kick off Coffee Fest’s ABCs by basking in the energy and creative spirit of its various art nooks! From a pop-up by Crimson River Tattoo for those who’ve been waiting for a sign to get inked, to Wabi Sabi Studio’s mug pottery workshop, Coffee Fest is set to awaken the artist in everyone and bring imaginations to life through art!
