India Cocktail Week Season 6 lands in Bengaluru on 22nd–23rd November at The Bhartiya Mall of Bengaluru, promising an unforgettable weekend of craft cocktails, electrifying performances, and the city’s most exciting culinary experiences.
For Season Six, ICW goes on tour, setting up outposts across Gurugram, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Mumbai, spreading the love and pushing the label of celebration, mixology and artistry. This year, Schweppes India joins us as a presenting partner with their eclectic range of mixers – as well as bars and brands from far and wide, with international and homegrown brands like Absolut, Bacardi, Black & White, Bombay Sapphire, Camikara Rum, Chambal Gin, Daku Rum, Don Julio, Jack Daniel’s, Jim Beam, Johnnie Walker Blonde, Pistola, Red Bull, Roku Gin, Tanqueray, Toki Suntory Whisky, Woodburns Whisky, Zig Zag Vodka and Zoya Gin!
Curated by industry veterans, WMS Entertainment and Passcode Hospitality, Season Six will also be graced by a flurry of musical entertainment, headlined by Indie legends, Peter Cat Recording Company with an opening performance by Disco and Drum masters, Stalvart John and Arun Sivag. Bringing the electric energy this year will be none other than Bangalore’s beloved DJs, A Party Called Nanda and Kampai!
ICW has always been a bed of innovation and collaborations featuring renowned establishments from around the world. These bars have made their way to our cities to show off world-class artistry and industry leading mixology. This year continues that legacy, with a special pop-up by Giacosa: the iconic bar that gave the world its first Negroni. Ranked #215 on The World’s Best Bars list, Giacosa will be among several international bars making their way to Bangalore this year, with more exciting names to follow.
To round off the experience, ICW is also proud to partner with Foo, Shoyu, Good Flippin Burgers and many more delectable bites to present Bangalore’s best culinary foot forward, a perfect partner to the festival’s excellent cocktails.
The cocktail village will also feature a plethora of curated cocktail workshops and masterclasses, as well as sit-down conversations with some of the brightest and best from the beverage industry.
“Season Six is our most ambitious venture yet”, said Akshat Kumar and Sharan Behl, Co-Founders of India Cocktail Week and Director at WMS. “4 cities, and over 100 beverage, food, and hospitality brands have come together to showcase the scale and potential of India’s rapidly growing cocktail and hospitality industry. With each edition, we aim to bring the community closer – connecting mixologists, brands, and cocktail enthusiasts. This year, more than ever, ICW is about connection: a connection that runs deeper than just a few cocktails – it is one between the audience and the people behind the brands, between creativity and curiosity. It is this shared passion that keeps us inspired to make ICW bigger, better and more meaningful each year.”
Bangalore’s vibrant energy has always set the stage for India Cocktail Week, and this year promises to raise the bar even higher. From expertly crafted cocktails to innovative culinary experiences and electrifying live performances, India Cocktail Week 2025 is set to bring the nation’s cocktail community together like never before. Join us for a weekend of craft, creativity, and connection, and be part of the country’s largest and most exciting celebration of cocktails.
