We will kick off our weekend of coffee with a Kansas City vs. St. Louis latte art competition on Friday, July 23rd. Each city will host a competition, and the top five baristas from each city will compete head to head via the Facebook event page.

The St. Louis portion of the competition will start at 7:30pm at the Kaldi's Roasting and Barista Education Center. The Kansas City portion will also start at 7:30pm at The Roasterie Plant.

Drinks and snacks will be available at both locations for a $5 suggested donation. Spectators and fans are encouraged to come. If you want to compete, entry is $5. The winner from each city will take a cash prize. The city with the highest points total after their cities' five pours wins the city title.
