On your marks ladies and gentlemen! At 7pm this evening (as of last night ~ WI) we will be releasing our first ‘tranch’ of tickets for this year’s Manchester Whisky Festival on Saturday 24th October.

These will be the first and only chance to get two tickets for £40. As soon as these are sold out we will put on sale a further limited run of tickets at the nearly as stunning 2 for £50 deal. These will both be limited to one pair of tickets per person in order to give everyone a chance. Once these tickets are sold, there will be NO MORE EARLY-BIRDS for this event.

Full price tickets wll be £30 until the event is sold out. You will have the choice of two sessions this year, from 11am-3pm or 4pm to 8pm. You are urged to select one session only and we reserve the right to refuse entry to both sessions on the day! You will also notice that we have moved venue to the stunning Manchester Town Hall, which we are very excited about! Hopefully we can settle down and call it our new home…

We already have the likes of Talisker, Glenlivet, Aberlour, Ardbeg, Douglas Laing, Amrut, Compass Box, Balbair, AnCnoc, Nikka and Penderyn all confirmed, with more to come.

We will once again have an on-site retail shop hosted by our friends at The Whisky Exchange, for those looking to buy bottles on the day. Add into the mix good food, some fantastic masterclasses and you are in for a real treat. All ticket types include sampling of all whiskies apart from any ‘Under the Counter’ drams or Masterclasses.
