If you are a passionate coffee lover and an art aficionado, Coffee and Art Fringe Festival Asia 2015 (CAFFA 2015), at Publika, here is a smack-dab place to go.

Its event director, Karen Khoo, said that the annual event which started today until this Sunday, celebrates the wonderful rise of the speciality coffee scene, music, arts and culture, all in one spot.

"Malaysia coffee culture is growing day-by-day and it is an invigorating platform to introduce various kinds of coffee including coffee education and drinking opportunities," she told Bernama here, today.

Karen said more than 40 innovative speciality coffee industry exhibitors showcasing and selling not only the premium types of coffee, but also featuring the latest technologies such as high-tech espresso machine would be at the event.

"Throughout this three-day event, we are targeting 30,000 visitors and I am sure that the visitors will experience more than just drinking a cup of coffee," she said.

She said the visitors will also have the opportunity to customise their own kind of coffee for free at Nescafe's coffee bar and enjoy the interactive coffee games.

Other higlights of the programme are art, sculpture and photography exhibitions, doodle competition, finger-painting demonstration, food vendors, dance competition and more.
