About this Event

World Gin Day is a celebration of all things gin, giving us a legitimate excuse (not that we need one) to mix up a cocktail and learn about all of the exceptional gins from around the world and from right on our doorstep.

Gin is the quintessential English drink and if you claim to dislike it, you’re not trying hard enough. This might seem like a harsh statement, but with the “gin revolution” in full swing, the diversity of gins being produced all over the globe will startle all of your senses.

We have filled the building with the best gin producers in the world, live entertainment, talks, food, and bars.
