New Orleans' premiere cocktail festival, Tales of the Cocktail, will be taking the show on the road to bring Tales on Tour to The Principal Edinburgh Charlotte Square. The five day event will feature a series of talks, panel discussions and workshops that celebrate cocktail making, and aim to educate spirit professionals, expert and amateur, in the many facets of the industry.
This year will be the second iteration of the tour's two-year residency in the Scottish capital, and will go beyond the walls of The Principle, enlisting the help and expertise of many local bars and mixologists. Alongside the announcement of the event, Tales of the Cocktail have also opened their Cocktail Apprentice Programme which rewards talented and ambitious young bartenders with mentorship throughout the festival, and hands-on experience with internationally renowned members of the industry.
Tales on Tour takes place at The Principle Edinburgh Charlotte Square from April 7th - 11th 2018. Tickets start from £45 per seminar and go on sale on Thursday the 8th of February for members, and 15th of February for general release.
