Get ready to raise a glass because Vancouver Cocktail Week is returning for its fifth annual citywide celebration.

Taking place from March 1 to 8, the week-long cocktail extravaganza is filled with daily seminars, master classes, Cinq Ă  Sept happy hours, tasting events, cocktail-paired dinners, guest shifts, and plenty of other celebrations.

“We are proud to support and promote Vancouver’s incredible cocktail community and culture. The success of Vancouver Cocktail Week is made possible through the collaboration of everyone in the industry, including bartenders, venues, brands, consumers, and the supporting media,” said Gail Nugent, publisher of The Alchemist magazine and event producer for Vancouver Cocktail Week.

As part of the festivities, there will be a lineup of signature events for people to attend, including the must-attend Gala of Cocktails.

Taking place on March 7 at the Rosewood Hotel Georgia, the night will feature hot tunes, bar bites, and over two dozen cocktail stations hosted by local and international bartenders.

Other signature events include the festive Cocktail-Paired Brunch at Boulevard Kitchen and Oyster Bar on March 1, and the beloved Neighbourhood Cocktail Crawl Series, which will run throughout the week.

Tickets for all of Vancouver Cocktail Week’s signature events go on sale starting Dec. 1, 2025. These events are expected to sell out, especially the Gala of Cocktails, so if you want to attend, we’d recommend grabbing your tickets sooner rather than later.
