The event is on Tuesday, 24 March and Wednesday, 25 March. Each morning, free coffees will be available from 7:30am until 10am, or until the day’s supply runs out. Bellissimo’s Fortitude Valley café at 30 Wandoo Street is one of three venues taking part — the others are at Coorparoo and Bulimba.
A limit of 150 free coffees applies per venue per day, with one per customer. Hot and iced espresso-based drinks are covered, long blacks included, and both dairy and non-dairy milk choices are on offer. The promotion does not extend to specialty coffees, matcha, chai, cold brew or tea.
Artwork on the Cups
Audible has commissioned three Australian artists to produce original designs for the cups, each drawing on a selection of wellbeing titles from the platform’s catalogue.
Struthless has produced artwork based on Jamie Oliver’s Reset Your Health and James Clear’s Atomic Habits. Tori-Jay Mordey’s designs take inspiration from Jay Shetty’s Messy Love and Bessel van der Kolk’s The Body Keeps the Score. Celeste Mountjoy, who posts online as @filthyratbag, has created work informed by Mel Robbins’s The Let Them Theory and Turia Pitt’s Selfish, described by Broadsheet as a guide to unlearning bad habits. All six titles are available through Audible.
About Bellissimo Coffee
The Fortitude Valley café holds a particular significance for Bellissimo — it is where the company opened its first café and roastery back in 2009. According to Bellissimo, the business started out as a small venture between three friends before its original blend, Emporio, entered the Espresso Champion category at the Sydney Royal Fine Food Awards and won the trophy on its debut entry. According to the company’s website, Bellissimo’s mission includes sourcing and roasting coffee, reducing environmental impact and supporting the community.

The Audible activation is centred on promoting the platform’s wellbeing audiobook collection. Customers need only arrive within the event window — no purchase is required. Audible’s wellbeing titles are available on the platform at any time, independently of the event.
