Every October, Bucharest becomes the beating heart of the bar world. BRIFT brings together bartenders, baristas and hospitality professionals from across Romania and beyond for two days of craft, competition and discovery.
The 8th edition unfolds on October 6 and 7, 2026, at HALO Events Center, organized by Exquisite Bar Solutions, the agency that has shaped Romania's bartending scene for over twenty years.
Walk through EXPO and meet the brands defining the industry's next chapter. Sit in on seminars led by international trainers sharing real technique in mixology, barista craft and flair bartending. Watch the country's best compete for the Bartender Romania Awards.
The BRIFT app is your guide through all of it. Follow the live schedule as it unfolds, browse exhibitors and find their booths, get the seminar lineup before it fills up, and receive notifications the moment something you care about is starting.
Whether you're pouring drinks behind the bar, running a venue, distributing the next big brand or simply curious about where hospitality is headed, BRIFT is where the industry meets. Download the app and step into the fair.
