━━━━
The 2023 season has officially come to a close, and we’re taking the opportunity to reflect on everything that’s been, while looking forward to the upcoming year.

For our fifteen year anniversary, we put wild ideas and formats into practice, introducing new products and new challenges for competitors on the world stage and kept things hot and fresh for our audience around the globe.

This year, we had our largest cohort of global participation yet, with over 5,000 competitors across 178 National and Regional events. Our goal to make endless glory on the world stage accessible and inclusive continues to ring true, and the worldwide phenomenon that is the WAC is showing no signs of slowing down.

Thanks to the hard work of our small team, our network of hosts around the world, and the support of our generous sponsors, we’ve continued to grow the championship, reach new coffee markets, and leave a positive impression on the lives of coffee lovers across the globe.
