Sydney, Australia – 4 May 2023 – Sydney, Australia – Sydney Whisky Week is back for its third year, from May 10th to May 20th, 2023. The event is a partnership between The Whisky List and Man of Many aiming to create the ultimate playground for whisky lovers in one of the world’s best cities.
For those unfamiliar with the event, Sydney Whisky Week is a celebration of whisky, bringing together some of the city’s best bars and distillers for a week-long festival of tastings and events. Participants can download The Whisky List app and take a self-guided walking tour of some of Sydney’s best bars, including Grain Bar, Doss House, Alfy’s Bar and The Roosevelt. At each participating bar, they will receive a free pour of whisky from each of the partner brands – Glen Moray, Glenmorangie, Waterford and Manly Spirits Coastal Stone – with every purchase of a featured Sydney Whisky Week cocktail.
The event is not only a celebration of whisky but also an important community-building event that supports the local hospitality industry and promotes tourism. Last year’s event had over 1,200 participants, and this year’s festival promises to be even bigger and better.
Co-founder of The Whisky List, Oliver Maruda, is excited to see the festival return. “We’re thrilled to be bringing Sydney Whisky Week back in 2023,” he said. “This event is not just about whisky; it’s about celebrating our city’s rich culture and community spirit. We can’t wait to see everyone out and about, exploring the city and enjoying some fantastic whisky at our top bars across the city.”
Frank Arthur, Co-founder of Man of Many, added, “Sydney Whisky Week is a fantastic opportunity for the community to come together and discover the city’s world-class bar scene. We’re proud to be supporting local businesses and promoting tourism in Sydney, and we look forward to seeing everyone at the event.”
In addition to the free pours at participating bars, each sponsor brand will also be hosting exclusive ticketed tasting events throughout Sydney Whisky Week. It’s an event not to be missed for both seasoned whisky lovers and those new to the world of whisky. And with World Whisky Day just around the corner, it’s the perfect way to kick off the celebrations.
