LEEDS, WEST YORKSHIRE, UNITED KINGDOM, February 1, 2016 /EINPresswire.com/ --
This April sees the return of the UK’s greatest cocktail festival to Leeds, as cocktail enthusiasts are set to converge to the iconic Town Hall to celebrate the unique cocktail culture our great city has to offer.

Following sell out events in 2014 and 2015, Cocktails in the City Leeds is expanding to a two-night cocktail extravaganza on 7th & 8th April and is already poised as one of the most anticipated events of the year.

Twenty of the city’s best bars will be popping up at Leeds Town Hall creating new signature cocktails and competing to win the coveted ‘Best Cocktail’ award.

Commenting on what’s in store for the festival, Tabara N’Diaye, one of the organisers says:

"Every year we challenge ourselves to build on previous editions and make each festival even better than the one before. In addition to the extraordinary line-up of bars we’re working with, many of which are new to the city, we’re delighted to be partnering with an array of fantastic Leeds businesses to offer a plethora of tastings, masterclasses, games and culinary pairings."

Exclusive experiences are set to include a Tick Tock Unlock escape room, a rum and chocolate tasting with Hotel Chocolat and the finest street food vendors in the undercover Crypt.

Access all areas is still de rigueur, giving ticket holders the unique opportunity to sip on cocktails in The Clock Tower overlooking Yorkshire’s skyline or find the hidden bars in the Victorian prison cells.

Shhh! It’s a secret…

… Well for now anyway! As yet, the full list of bars taking part has not been released, however in previous years, the likes of The Maven, The Alchemist, Epernay and Mojo were in attendance with their finest mixologists.
NB: With tickets being sold out three weeks before the event last year, cocktail enthusiasts are being advised to get in early, with tickets available at Trinity Leeds ticket office and online at www.cocktailsinthecity.co.uk
