Liverpool Cocktail Week Returns This October With 50+ Venues and Cocktails From £5

Liverpool Cocktail Week is returning this October for its fourth edition, bringing 10 days of cocktails, exclusive offers and special experiences to more than 50 bars and restaurants across the city.

Running from Friday 9 October to Sunday 18 October 2026, the city-wide celebration will showcase Liverpool’s thriving hospitality scene, giving cocktail lovers an excuse to revisit old favourites and discover somewhere new.

More than 50 venues are taking part in this year’s Liverpool Cocktail Week, from some of the city’s best-known bars and restaurants to independent venues, hotels and hospitality favourites.

The line-up includes Black Cat Club, BCD, The Alchemist and Turtle Bay, with hundreds of signature cocktails and exclusive offers available throughout the 10-day festival.

How does Liverpool Cocktail Week work?

Festival-goers can purchase an official Liverpool Cocktail Week wristband, which unlocks signature cocktails priced between £5 and £7, alongside discounted drinks, food and other exclusive offers at participating venues.

The wristband is valid for the entire 10 days, giving visitors plenty of time to make their way around the city and try out different bars and cocktails.

Royal Albert Dock Liverpool also returns as the festival’s official event partner, with 11 dockside venues joining this year’s celebrations.

Participating Royal Albert Dock venues include Delhi House, Gusto, Lunyalita, Miller & Carter, PANAM, Revolution, Rosa’s Thai, The Botanist, The One O’Clock Gun, The Long Shot and What’s Cooking?

Visitors will also be able to collect their Liverpool Cocktail Week wristbands from Gusto, making the waterfront a handy starting point for exploring the festival.

Alice Christison, Founder of Liverpool Cocktail Week, said: “We are so excited to be bringing Liverpool Cocktail Week back for another year and to see it continue to grow. What makes the event so special is the incredible hospitality community in Liverpool – from the bartenders creating amazing cocktails to the venues that continue to give people a reason to go out and explore the city.

“Having more than 50 venues involved this year is a huge milestone, and we’re thrilled to have such a brilliant mix of established names and independent venues taking part. We’re also delighted to welcome back Royal Albert Dock as our event partner. It’s such an iconic part of Liverpool and a fantastic fit for Cocktail Week.

“We want people to use the week as an opportunity to discover new places, support local businesses and enjoy everything the city’s hospitality scene has to offer.

“After three years of building Liverpool Cocktail Week, we can’t wait to make this year the biggest and best one yet.”
