On Thursday October 1, 2026 at the gorgeous Bowery Hotel, Arte Agave is back, and Day 1 is where the real magic happens. Think over 100 tequilas and mezcals to sample, a lineup of the best Mexican kitchens slinging drool-worthy fare, live performances, and rare pours you won't find anywhere else in the city. Whether you're a lifelong collector or just agave-curious, this is the kind of night that turns a Thursday into a story you're still telling your friends about.
Grab your $69 General Admission Ticket (a $99 Value) to enjoy a 2.5 Hour Open Bar from 7:00pm to 9:30pm serving 100+ Varieties of Agave Spirits, Delicious Cocktails, not to mention Savory Cuisine and Sweet Treats from Local Culinary Favorites like tacos, tamales, taquitos, ice cream & more, plus more surprises in store!
But why not get ahead of the rest of the crowd? Upgrade to the $95 Early Entry Admission Ticket (a $120 Value) that gets you all the GA Benefits listed above, plus Early Entry at 6:00pm for a Special VIP Hour, Special Expressions being poured during Early Entry Admission Hour only, and an Arte Agave Tasting Glass to take home.
Sip your way through tastings of Campo Azul, Lalo Tequila, Milagro Tequila, Tanteo, Mezcal Amaras, Mezcal Derrumbes, and more, not to mention Spicy Guava Margaritas by Laelia Tequila, a Manzana Chicana from Señora Leona, Tanteo's Spicy Jalapeño Margarita and Habanero Paloma, and a Rancho Mexicano by El Mexicano.
On the food side, local favorites Marcela Cocina Mexicana, JaJaJa, Ruta Oaxaca, Vallarta, Sleep Walk Chocolateria, and Tipsy Scoop bring tacos, carne asada, mole, tamales, taquitos, homemade salsas, chocolates, and boozy ice cream to the table. Round it out with a Baile Folklórico performance by Mazarte Dance Company, traditional música from Mariachi Sol Azteca, live sets from DJ Mickey Perez, and a photo booth to capture it all.
Add in hands-on experiences like blending workshops, guided tastings, intimate conversations with master distillers, and access to live art installations, painters, digital artists, and creative collaborations; this is your opportunity to dive deep...

$95 Early Entry Admission Ticket To The 2026 Arte Agave Festival Day 1 (a $120 Value)
Arte Agave is back and it's bigger than ever, produced by Daily Pour, aka the team behind some of the country's most beloved spirits festivals (think Whiskey Riot and Whiskey Washback, among others). Daily Pour has built a reputation for pairing serious spirits education with genuine fun, and Arte Agave is their love letter to tequila and mezcal, a celebration that treats agave spirits with the same reverence whiskey fans have long enjoyed, while wrapping it in the music, art, and flavor of Mexican culture.
Setting the scene is the Bowery Hotel, one of Manhattan's most iconic addresses. Known for its old-world charm and effortlessly cool atmosphere, the Bowery Hotel is the perfect backdrop for an evening built around craftsmanship and connection. The real showstopper, though, is the hotel's stunning outdoor terrace, a lush, string-lit space where guests can sip their favorite pours under the open sky while the city hums just beyond the walls.
Step inside a more intimate side of Arte Agave. Designed for the curious, the collector, and the agave enthusiast, Day 1 is an immersive experience where you'll go beyond the tasting table and connect with the people, stories, and craftsmanship behind the world's most celebrated agave spirits. Take part in hands-on experiences like blending workshops and guided tastings, join intimate conversations with master distillers and brand founders, and enjoy exclusive access to the experience.
Throughout the evening, you'll drink, dine, and discover live art installations, painters, digital artists, and creative collaborations inspired by the culture and spirit of Mexico. This is your opportunity to slow down, ask questions, meet the makers, and experience agave culture in a more personal setting. Expect a night of rare pours, hands-on learning, and unforgettable flavor.
