Again this year, we have two Brand Expo & Socials at Cork Whiskey Fest 2025 at The Metropole Hotel on Friday March 21st & Saturday March 22nd.

Both Brand Expo & Socials will begin at 7.30pm and finish at 11pm. With over 40 brands and distilleries across 2 rooms each night, there will be plenty of new whiskeys and spirits for you to discover and sample. The floorplan of where each brand is located is now available to view.

In addition to this, the distilleries will also be showcasing their gins, vodkas and other spirits, alongside the usual whiskeys at each brand table. We will also have some complimentary Three Cents mixers available, expertly poured by Drinks Consultant Mark Lonergan, for those that wish to enjoy their spirit samples in a long drink!

With the best and brightest of the Irish Whiskey community in attendance, there will be many a new friendship struck and plenty of craic to be had.

Expo’s include tasting glass and lanyard on arrival, access to 40 plus brands and distilleries, each offering free samples of their multiple liquids, whiskies, gins, vodkas and rums. You can also chat with the vendors and get any info you need. We will provide some complimentary mixers also and some light bites. Irish Malts will be available if you would like to purchase any liquids. No extra costs apart from ticket prices. 

Unfortunately, No Wheelchair Access to CWF Brand Expo & Socials 2025, due to extensive renovations in The Metropole Hotel. Our sincerest apologies for this circumstance, that is beyond our control
