We have spent the last 15+ years traveling the country exploring local coffee, tea, and chocolate from downtown Chicago to small town shops in remote settings. Over that time period there has been a growth in quality and access to the nearest local, specialty shop. We really believe there are good options in most parts of the country now versus having to go to the center of larger cities to find the best. The Caffeine Crawl experience is one-of-a kind, but we always want to share more of our discoveries with you. There are special people and businesses with exciting stories and knowledge to share. Our Virtual Caffeine Crawl allows us to do that from coast-to-coast in one experience.

Our 3rd annual Virtual Caffeine Crawl, presented by Oatly, is an online adventure where ticket holders get a behind the scenes look into different topics revolving around coffee, tea, chocolate, business, and community. This is intended for the caffeine curious, no matter your level. Entertaining for those in, or planning to enter the industry, or lifelong caffeine fans at their own leisure. The businesses selected are very different from one another in location, focus, and size - creating a diverse event for you, the participant. Our goal is for the Virtual Caffeine Crawl to be an entertaining, educational, and an extra incentive for you to find new companies you are interested in adding to your caffeine rotation. Take part as a viewing marathon with friends, or one video at a time over a few weeks. This event will run through August 13th with added surprise content during the last two weeks. 


Yes, it's Virtual, and different from our live events, but it is also only $10, which the discounts alone pay for themselves. We hope this encourages you to visit and order online from some of these small businesses we have helped you discover. Thanks for your continued support and interest in Caffeine Crawl activities.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE AND WHAT IS OFFERED:
- Purchase your access ticket or VIP Package at the product info below. We will email you the private URL for access to the event's entirety at the email provided on your purchase. Please check your spam folder. 
​** DO NOT PUBLICLY POST THE PRIVATE URL **

- The businesses have provided new videos for this event with insight and tips on a topic covering coffee, tea, or chocolate.
- Several of the participating businesses have special discount codes for this Virtual Caffeine Crawl. 
- You can take part in the experience solo, or with friends. Watch multiple times and practice at home or in your shop, or watch a video a day over two weeks. How you want to experience the Virtual Crawl is up to you. Event runs through August 14th, and then will disappear.

WHY:
Whether a consumer of coffee, tea, and chocolate that works in an occupation that has no relationship with those products this Virtual Crawl creates a window to new knowledge. Learn more about in depth processes of how these drinks get handed to you. If in the industry, or planning to be, the details shared from these businesses are a wealth of knowledge to help you in your caffeinated journey. There's a good chance you'll discover someone new that becomes a new favorite.


CHANGES FROM PREVIOUS YEARS:
- Prices are less for both the event and limited VIP package. In a time when everything is costing more, thanks to our great sponsors we are able to offer this event to you for less than '21.
- A wider range of topics and no overlaps of exact topics.
- Faster video view and load time.
- More group interaction.


WHAT IS A CAFFEINE CRAWL:
The ritual of drinking at great coffee or tea shops, or nibbling on the best craft chocolate embraces us. It draws us together, which is why The LAB developed Caffeine Crawl in 2011. This event bridges the gap between those behind the daily professional activity within these industries, and the enthusiasts of quality-driven coffee, tea, juice, and chocolate. There’s not another traveling event like Caffeine Crawl connecting professionals and consumers within local communities in a fun, educational, and interactive environment. ​
Essentially, it’s the coolest and most approachable event revolving around coffee shop culture in the country. It bridges the gap between consumers and industry pros in a celebration of the local specialty scene. This will be our 125th Caffeine Crawl, so we've been around the block a few times. More specific questions? Learn more about the Caffeine Crawl experience here.
