Veneziano announces AeroPress Cup fundraiser

Veneziano Coffee Roasters has announced it will host an Aeropress Cup Competition to raise money for the Red Cross disaster aid for Türkiye, Syria and New Zealand. The event will take place on 23 March at its Richmond roastery from 6pm to 8:30pm.

Tickets are $50 for entry for spectators and competitors, with 100 per cent of proceeds going to Red Cross. Veneziano is offering a friends and family discount; use code ‘FRIENDS23’ at the Eventbrite checkout to purchase tickets for $35.
