Federal Latte Art Smackdown

Get ready to see some serious coffee skills battle it out in the ultimate latte art showdown!

Get ready for a night of silky pours, big cheers, and serious barista bragging rights. We’re taking over Federal Café (Leeds) for a head-to-head latte art throwdown, where 16 competitors battle it out in a knockout bracket until one champion is crowned.

Expect rapid-fire rounds (think 3 minutes to pour + present), free-pour only (no etching, no tricks), and a grand finale where finalists have to nail two matching designs - one dairy, one Oatly. Come along to watch the tension, hype your favourite pourer, and soak up the coffee community vibes.

When: March 18th
Time: Entry from 6:00pm, competition starts 6:30pm
Where: Federal Café, 34 Boar Lane, Leeds, LS1 5DA

Bonus: there are proper prizes on the line (we’re talking gear from Acaia and more, plus merch + coffee), and a judging panel featuring folks from Ozone, Federal, Oatly, La Marzocco and friends

Rules and format will be sent to competitors prior to the event.

T&C’s - The prizes are not transferable, refundable, or exchangeable for cash or any other substitute.
