Cocktails in the City's Summer 2016 Festival in Bedford Square


Cocktails in the City's summer festival returns to the capital on Friday 29th and Saturday 30th July 2016.  Taking place in the lovely Bedford Square Gardens, there will be over 25 bars serving up wonderful and imaginative cocktails, plus live music, street food, and interactive masterclasses so that you can hone your own skills.

"Following the roaring success of the last sell out event, Cocktails in the City, London’s greatest cocktail party, returns with the hugely popular Summer Edition. On Friday 29th and Saturday 30th July 2016, Cocktails in the City will once again gather twenty-five of London’s most exciting bars beneath the green canopies of London’s Bedford Square Gardens for a sunny two-day celebration of the city’s unique and diverse drinking scene.
For this cocktail weekender, Cocktails in the City has once again carefully curated an eclectic array of London’s finest bars who will set up shop, pop-up style in an elegant and leafy Georgian square. From exclusive institutions to elusive speakeasies and brand new haunts, each bar will be vying for the limelight, offering unique cocktail tastings, interactive demonstrations, games and entertainment.
Produced by one of London’s most exciting events companies B&H Group (The Blitz Party, Prohibition, The Chap Olympiad) guests are greeted with an immersive and interactive experience. Expect to sample incredible cocktails from London’s top bars, taste unusual and rare ingredients, lend a hand to the world’s finest bartenders in interactive masterclasses and watch talented mixologists put their personal twists on new summer creations.
Additionally to the 25 pop-up bars, Bourne & Hollingsworth will be providing a special series of Spirited Sermons throughout the day, interactive spirit masterclasses hosted by ambassadors and master distillers.
