The city’s best party returns, March 2 to 9, with more than 40 events, dozens of spirit brands, and partner venues across Vancouver
Vancouver, BC (February 5, 2025) — With fewer than 30 days to go until the fourth annual Vancouver Cocktail Week presented by The Alchemist magazine, it’s time to nail down your tickets for the best seminars, most exciting pop-ups, and unmissable signature events like the closing night Black & White Gala.
Vancouver Cocktail Week’s schedule from March 2 – 9 is packed with more than 40 events, starting with the traditional Signature Sunday Cocktail Brunch (this year at ARC Restaurant at the Fairmont Waterfront), followed by seminars, tastings, master classes, parties, and burlesque and drag shows. Plus, there are cocktail-paired dinners, tea parties, and other culinary events, including the Cherry Blossom Tipsy Tea at Notch 8 at the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver, and the “Festa della Primavera” dinner at Carlino.
And that doesn’t even include the popular (unticketed) “Cinq à Sept” series of elevated happy hours, which will be held at partnering bars all over town.
In fact, one of the best ways to discover those venues and explore the city’s talented cocktail culture is by joining one of the neighbourhood cocktail crawls that offer a taste of what the city’s most exciting bartenders are shaking up.
But if there is one event not to miss, it’s the closing night Black & White Gala on Saturday, March 8. The signature event of Vancouver Cocktail Week will be held in the gorgeous Spanish Ballroom at the Rosewood Hotel Georgia and features live music, a DJ, elevated bar snacks, and more than two dozen premium brand sponsors.
Vancouver Cocktail Week is proud to announce that a portion of ticket sales will go to its charity partner, Mind The Bar, a Vancouver-based organization that supports mental health wellness in the hospitality industry across Canada.
