The Kona Coffee Cultural Festival is an annual coffee event founded in 1970, and held each November in the Kona region of the Island of Hawai‘i (Big Island).[1][2][3]
Over the course of approximately ten days,[4][5] the festival features a wide array of activities: farm tours through historic and operational coffee estates, cupping competitions that evaluate the flavor and aroma of Kona coffee beans, cultural performances including music, dance and artisan crafts, food tastings and recipe contests, as well as artisan markets and parades.[6][7][8][9][10] It is one of the oldest food festivals in Hawaii.[11][12]
