Eleventh annual coffee and tea tasting weekend at the Franklin County Fairgrounds, with 40-plus Ohio-area roasters, a commemorative mug, marketplace vendors, and free kids under 12
The Columbus Coffee Festival marks its 11th year on Saturday, October 3, and Sunday, October 4, 2026, at the Franklin County Fairgrounds in Hilliard. Your ticket includes a commemorative mug and unlimited sampling from more than 40 coffee roasters and tea vendors during the session or day you buy.
Beyond the pours, the grounds add a marketplace of artisans and bakers, food trucks, live music, and paid add-ons such as coffee-inspired tattoos, axe throwing, watercolor sessions, massage, and tarot. Nature's Curve Farm brings alpacas on Saturday only. Kids 12 and under enter free with an adult but do not receive a mug or samples without their own ticket.
Parking is free in the lot across from the main gate. Choose single-session, all-day, or two-day passes on Ticket Spice depending on how hard you want to sip. Come hungry for lunch trucks, pace your caffeine, and leave room in the car for bagged beans.
