Well, what can i say about this event! It was bloody fantastic from start to finish. My first time going and it certainly wont be the last. It was so nice to try soooo many different flavours (Hoxton is now a personal fave) and chat to the makers. I would say the only critique is that the area the meet the makers section was in got a little overcrowded at times, which meant a wee bit of time was spent waiting in lines. They need a bigger space. The band were great, the sax player was amazing. The whole set up of the room was lush. I thought the photo-booth was a nice touch, i personally used this twice 😂 all in all it was a fabulous experience and i cannot wait till the next one. Excellent work guys 👏🏻👏🏻read more

I would recommend everything about the Big Gin Festival. Really good value for money. Beautifully decorated, friendly people and a great atmosphere.
Left with a better knowledge of gin than when I arrived. Great night out as a group or as a couple.
Can’t wait until the next one!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️read more

Had a great night a the Big Big Gin Festival. Loads to do, plenty to sample, all the bar staff were very pleasant, the band was great and the food was good. Only disappointment was there was no sugar free lemonade or Soda Water for mixers. All other mixers weren’t suitable for diabetics and some people do actually hate Tonic. The two guys on the mixer desk were really good though and managed to find two soda waters just for me, that done me the whole night.read more
