Spring in New York City has arrived! On Saturday April 11, 2026, the waterfront at Industry City transforms into a playground for the sip-set as the 2026 Brooklyn Whiskey & Spirits Festival takes over. Choose your vibe, be it a sun-drenched afternoon session from 1:00pm until 4:00pm or a glowing evening affair from 6:00pm until 9:00pm. Either way, it’s three hours of pure tasting bliss wrapped in unmistakable Brooklyn charm.
Grab your $25 GA Ticket (a $70 value) to Session 1 or Session 2 that unlocks unlimited pours from 100 exceptional spirits. Think velvety bourbons, bold ryes, elegant single-malt Scotches, and world-class whiskies crafted by master distillers across the globe, plus a curated splash of vodka, gin, tequila, mezcal, and rum for good measure.
Savor the rugged character of Profanity Whiskey, the striking minerality of Volcanic Whiskey, the smooth bliss of Root Out Whisky, and the hometown pride of Fort Hamilton Distillery. And that’s only the beginning, as each table promises a new discovery, a new favorite, a new reason to raise your glass again.
Beyond the whiskey realm, expect artful pours from Tequila Gran Arte, expressions by Pinaq, refined sips of Gorae Soju, and indulgent sweetness courtesy of Angry Giraffe. Live music pulses through the space, setting the rhythm for a little two-step between tastings as laughter and clinking souvenir glasses (that you get to keep!) echo through the halls.
And because this is Brooklyn, the flavors don’t stop at the bar. Local food vendors roll in with crave-worthy bites. Think fresh lobster rolls, cheesy arepas, and other festival-ready indulgences (for purchase) designed to keep you fueled. The distillers themselves will pour their passionate creations straight into your glass, stories flowing as freely as the spirits.
Gather your crew, toast to the season, and let the city’s brightest sips carry you from golden afternoon into glittering night. Cheers to that...
Clear your calendar and cancel the backup plans. Saturday April 11, 2026 belongs to Brooklyn! The 2026 Brooklyn Whiskey & Spirits Festival is calling all thirsty tastemakers to Industry City, where waterfront breezes meet warehouse-chic. This is the kind of spring day New York City does best: sunlit, stylish, and buzzing with possibility, best enjoyed with a glass of something divine in hand.
This beloved annual fête comes from the team behind pulsd crowd-pleasers like the Jersey City Craft Beer Festival, the New York City Wine Festival, and the Brooklyn Tequila & Spirits Festival, so expect nothing less than a perfectly curated showcase of premium labels and boutique distillers. It’s a sip-tastic summit where industry icons and rising stars pour side by side.
From smooth Kentucky bourbons to velvety Irish whiskeys and beyond, the tasting tables are primed and ready. Drift between pours as live music sets the tone, and when you’re ready to branch out, crisp vodkas, botanical gins, smoky mezcals, artful tequilas, and sultry rums stand by to keep your palate intrigued and your glass ever-filled.
Producers travel from near and far, and yes, there will definitely be some from right here in New York State. They're ready to share their pride and joy, so come thirsty for it all! Expect your souvenir glass to be graced with pours from Profanity Whiskey, Balcones Distilling, Fort Hamilton Distillery, Volcanic Whiskey, Do Good Spirits, Hudson House Distillery, and more.
Between sips, indulge in bites from local flavor favorites like MozzArepas, Taste of Poland, and Angry Archie's (for purchase), each serving up crave-worthy nosh designed to heighten every delectable note in your glass.
Sunshine, smooth sounds, small-batch brilliance, and serious flavor. This is spring in Brooklyn...
