Whiskeyfest gathers Tampa Bay’s best distilleries for one night only

Tickets are limited, with room for only 250 of our closest friends and fans. Get yours here.

To quote Mark Twain, “Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough.” Well, here in Tampa Bay, we have too much sunshine, not actually a problem, and never enough whiskey, enter the 2nd Annual Winter Whiskeyfest hosted by our friends at I Love the Burg. Of course, when we say winter in Florida what we mean is lows in the 70’s and, to us, that’s perfect whiskey weather.

Taking place Saturday, January 19th from 6pm–9pm, the event will welcome revelers, 21+, to the La Florida Ballroom at Red Mesa Cantina in St. Petersburg, FL. They’ll be able to sample whiskeys from 14 different distilleries, enjoy light bites, and mingle over chill music. Plus, guests will receive a keepsake commemorative whiskey tasting glass to help them remember the special evening. Tickets are only $75 if you get them in advance (we recommend it, this event sells out quick) or $85 at the door.
