The 2025 VIC Community Coffee Championships have come to a close, wrapping up this year’s Community Coffee Champs season. Held over the weekend at the Meat Markets in North Melbourne—right alongside the buzzing Coffee Weekend festivities—the event brought together coffee lovers from all over Victoria and beyond.
It was fantastic to see such a huge turnout across the Latte Art, Barista, and Brewers competitions. The standard was incredibly high, and the sense of community and passion from everyone involved was clear to see.
A big thank you goes out to all the competitors, sponsors, judges, volunteers, and members who made it all happen. These events simply wouldn’t be possible without your energy and support.
