BCB showcases the spirit of urban life
What does that mean?
As an international trade fair, BCB brings the spirit and structure of the metropolis Berlin, the meeting point of the International Spirits Industry, to the Messe Berlin and offers new and surprising content. |
How do I benefit from this?
Each hall is brought to life by hotspots and special productions and reflects trends in big city life. The Bar Convent Berlin becomes an Urban Market, a bistro or a community bar, offers co-working spaces and the experience of the senses. The transit areas become lively transitions with late night bars, coffee stations, exhibitions or situations from life in the metropolis. |
BERLIN IS STILL THE PERFECT HOME FOR US.
The new concept of BCB - City Life Spirits - becomes part of the architecture, content and interaction with a continuous red thread. Each hall is brought to life by hotspots and special productions and reflects trends in big city life. The Bar Convent Berlin becomes an Urban Market, a bistro or a community bar, offers co-working spaces, a rooftop bar and the experience of the senses.
The transit areas become lively transitions with late night bars, coffee stations, exhibitions or situations from life in the metropolis.

Your Ideas
We are happy if you have new stories to tell and new formats to work on with us.
Our two special exhibition areas
Coffee Convent Berlin - Coffee Culture in all its diversity
Coffee can do so much more than just "wake you up" and is playing an increasingly important role in the bar industry. The Coffee Convent Berlin shows the topic "coffee for bars" in all its diversity. The black bean is given special attention with its own stage for lectures and tastings with industry experts. Top trends of last year's edition were Nitro and Coldbrew. What will be the trend of tomorrow?
Brew Berlin - Our platform for beer in bars!
This is where the creative brewery community meets bar owners, restaurateurs, retail and bartenders: Brew Berlin stands for new beers, local and international breweries, and endless expert know-how on product selection and the craft. New beer experiments are mixed with old hands of the scene, topped with a lot of expertise and skilful craftsmanship.
