After the festival went 'to the streets' during the pandemic, this element has now become a permanent feature, despite the end to lockdown.
That means more than 50 Glasgow businesses will be offering discounts and deals over festival fortnight.
Some of the discounts that will be on offer include:
* Free cannoli with every coffee at Laboratorio Espresso
* Free coffee with every food purchase at Sprigg
* Free cake with every coffee at Five March Guid Egg and Morning Glory
* 2 for 1 coffees at the Alchemy Experiment
* Free coffee with every bag of beans at Black Pine Coffee
All discounts can be claimed through the Best Coffee App, which ticket holders can download to use deals at participating businesses, and there's no limit to how many deals can be used from 2nd-15th May.
Organiser and founder of the Glasgow Coffee Festival, Lisa Lawson, believes that by combining the traditional festival format with the 'to the streets' element, this year's event will be better and bigger than ever.
She said: "Glasgow has an incredible coffee community. It's brilliant to see so many coffee businesses offer great discounts and deals. These deals are a thank you to everyone who supported coffee businesses during the pandemic, and a nudge to coffee fans old and new to try some new cafes during the festival fortnight.
"I'm very proud to say this will be the biggest coffee event Scotland has ever seen. I feel like everything's been building up to this point since we launched in 2014."
