Our tenth year celebration! And we stretched our beloved festival to ten days to mark the occasion. We came back to Brick Lane and took over the Back Yard Market and Brick Lane Yard to make our wildest Cocktail Village yet. We had a full schedule oflive entertainment, with the gorgeous team from Sink The Pink plus Ultimate Power, Hip Hop Brunch and a roster of top class DJs keeping the party going. We partnered with our freinds at Street Feast to make sure all our guests were well fed and the calibre of pop-ups in The Cocktail Village were another level again. We crowned the best cocktail of LCW to the chaps at Cocktail Trading Company for their tenth birthday cake inspired creation! We had over 340 bars taking part in the £6 Cocktail Tours with even more of an emphasis on No & Low - to give our guests as many options as possible when planning their night. We also built a London Cocktail Week Shop in the heart of Covent Garden as a throw-back to our early days when we worked in Seven Dials. We hosted bars from all around the world every night of the festival with take overs from teams in Australia, America, Greece, France and beyond... Oh - and we made our very own anniversary gin. Because - why not!?  On October 10th we hosted our official tenth birthday party and invited our nearest and dearest to celebrate with us. We humoured ourselves and made long speeches thanking everyone for their support over our first decade, then we got on vintage Routemaster Buses, as another throwback, and made the journey (with cocktails of course) to The Cocktail Village where the celebrations went on late into the night. We absolutely loved it. If you joined us - thank you. It meant the world!
