For those of you joining us this year—especially first-timers—you probably have a lot of questions. This article is your guide to everything you need to know about this year’s Expo!
I need help registering, or I need to add on to my registration!

What can I add on to my registration?
We have two exciting courses this year to add on to your registration for an extra fee.

I want to attend the conference sessions, but I’m not sure which ones are right for me.
First of all, make sure you have the right pass! A Tea Guru pass or a Conference pass will give you access to the education sessions. We recommend the Tea Guru pass for all new attendees as it gives you access to all of the education sessions.
Once you have your pass, you can check out our full schedule of conference sessions. To make things easier, we’ve also broken them down by Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced!
What networking events can I attend to meet other World Tea Expo attendees and exhibitors?
We have two networking events during the show, and both are included with all passes. We hope you’ll join us!
