Spearheading into the Freeman Expo Hall on May 18, this event is the social calendar highlight for both seasoned whiskey aficionados and curious novices alike.

Whiskey Riot presents an excellent opportunity for attendees to learn directly from brand ambassadors about what distinguishes different whiskey styles. According to Whiskey Riot co-founder Bobby Finan, the festival is an arena where guests can learn unique facts about the brands that might be challenging to find online. As Finan highlights, “By understanding what you’re tasting, sometimes those stories make the whiskey taste even better.”
Besides the tastings, attendees can enjoy specialty cocktail bars, featuring drinks made with featured brands. Each guest will also receive one complimentary cocktail coupon. A helpful tasting worksheet is also available to email subscribers, making it easy to keep tracks of the sips and tastes sampled.
Tickets, available only online, include access to the tastings, an official glass, and one cocktail made with the attendees’ choice of featured brands. VIP ticket holders are granted early entry and access to exclusive rare bottles not available during general admission hours.
So, gear up for a spirited day filled with diverse whiskey samplings, deep-dives into the world of whiskey and spirit-filled camaraderie.
