Winter doesn’t stand a chance!

On Saturday February 28, 2026 starting at 1:00pm, the iconic Chelsea Industrial transforms into the city’s most stylish sanctuary for world-class sipping.
Grab your $25 GA Ticket (a $70 value) that gets you admission to Session 1 (1:00pm until 4:00pm) or Session 2 (6:00pm until 9:00pm). This is your All-Access Pass, complete with 3 Hours of Unlimited Tastings of 100+ Whiskies, Bourbons, Single-Malt Scotches, and Ryes, alongside a small selection of Vodkas, Gins, Tequilas, and beyond.

This is where whiskey culture meets cosmopolitan buzz. The NYC Whiskey & Spirits Festival brings together an expertly curated lineup of 100+ premium and rare spirits from across the globe, each one selected for depth, distinction, and character. From the silky, exotic elegance of Rampur Indian Whisky to the bold, full-bodied richness of Green River Kentucky Whisky, every pour is a delight.
And whiskey is just the beginning. A dynamic cast of standout spirits elevates the experience even further. Mezcal Campante showcases time-honored craft and smoky sophistication, while Pinaq delivers tropical flair. And, of course, you'll sip it all from your souvenir tasting glass!
While you sip, live entertainment sets the vibe, interactive games keep the fun flowing, and a food lineup adds serious flavor. Think Mozzarepas, Angry Archie’s lobster rolls, and more indulgent bites available for purchase on-site.
