London Cocktail Week – back with a bang

30 August, 2018

London Cocktail Week organisers have announced that it will be moving The Cocktail Village to a new bigger venue on Brick Lane.

Now in its ninth year running the ‘world’s biggest cocktail festival’ is moving to accommodate the growing numbers of visitors. The new location of The Cocktail Village is at The Old Trueman Brewery on Brick Lane; just a stone’s throw from the old venue in Spitalfields Market.

Founder of DrinkUp.London and London Cocktail Week, Hannah Sharman-Cox said: “We are delighted to celebrate the spirit of the capital’s cocktail scene with the return of London Cocktail Week, the world’s biggest cocktail festival. We can’t wait to invite even more cocktail lovers to the new space at The Old Truman Brewery.”

Visitors can expect to see more pop-up cocktail bars and bigger experiences, as well as tasting street food. New for this year, The Cocktail Experiments will also give guests the chance to learn about the craft of cocktail-making and how to create the perfect version of their favourite cocktail.

This year’s festival pass holders will be treated to free entry to The Cocktail Village and for the first time London Cocktail Week will be offering VIP packages which include: fast track entry to The Cocktail Village, a free drink and access to special VIP only areas.

Festival passes are on sale now at DrinkUp.London and for £10 drinks enthusiasts can soak up the city’s spirits, enjoy pop-up cocktail bars, unlimited £6 cocktails, parties and more.
