The competition is Saturday 11:00 - 3:30 and Sunday 11:00 - 1:30. All times Mountain Central.

The top three baristas from each regional competition secure a guaranteed spot to compete at the nationals, the Canadian Barista Championship hosted by Krups, on October 21-22, 2008 at the Canadian Coffee & Tea Show in Montreal. The eventual winner will represent Canada in the World Barista Championship to be held in Atlanta, USA in 2009. The events are open to the public and admission is by donation to the CoffeeKids charity, helping families build a better life in coffee growing countries.
