How to plan a pop-up takeaway café

Over The Noise weekend, we worked with local churches to host pop-up takeaway cafés, as a way of reaching out and blessing their communities.

The point of a pop-up event is to provide a space for connection and conversation. The temporary nature of a ‘pop-up’ means you can trial ideas without committing to something long-term. A key factor is to ensure you have a good ‘hook’ to draw people to your event – such as food! We would also encourage you to think about how you can use the event to practically demonstrate God’s love e.g. could the refreshments be free or low-cost?

We've put together a short 'how-to guide' for you and your church to learn how easy it is to do the same thing.
