Take the grand staircase up to one of the most historic and beautiful ballrooms in Vancouver and the marquee event of Vancouver Cocktail Week: The Golden Era Cocktail Revival Gala.

Raise your glass to the fall of Prohibition and enter the golden era of cocktails at an epic party that takes you on a glamorous journey through tipsy traditions. Throughout the ballroom—designed in 1939 and with more than 800 hours of hand-painted details—over 40 complimentary premium spirit bar stations featuring local bar stars and global brand ambassadors will offer drinks representing different eras in cocktail culture past and present.

Start the party early with our VIP upgrade option!

VIP ticket holders get early access to the party. Ticket page here. Note that VIP upgrade tickets are only valid when accompanied with Golden Cocktail Revival Gala tickets.

Come early and enjoy our VIP hour, where you can mingle with our international and national VIP guests while enjoying passed canapés and cocktails.

Following the VIP hour, cheer on the finalists in the World Class Canada bartender competition during their live speed-round hour before we announce the 2023 Canadian Bartender of the Year.

Then enjoy the food stations, live music and DJ, and cast your bids in the silent auction to support the BC Hospitality Foundation and its scholarship program.

The Golden Era Cocktail Revival Gala is guaranteed to be a night to remember.

Note that Fairmont Hotel Vancouver will be offering special room rates for the evening.
