Imbibers, get ready to raise your glasses for a celebratory second round, as will be ready to pour on the good times for another year.
As an exciting follow-up to its pandemic-era debut, the multi-day event, featuring bar stars from around the world, the second annual Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»Cocktail Week (VCW) will take place from March 5 to 11, 2023.
Hosted by (a sibling publication to Â鶹´«Ã½Ó³»), VCW will be even bigger and better than its inaugural installation.
The signature events are back, including the opening brunch and closing gala. In between those two big parties there will be a dozen seminars, cocktail-paired dinners and special events as well as VCW's "cinq à sept" series of elevated happy hours.
Now that we can travel again, international cocktail pros as well as national and international brand ambassadors will be flying in to share their expertise and join the fun.
One significant highlight is that VCW will also be the host of the prestigious competition finals.
