Enjoy your spirits? Then be sure not to miss out on the South African Distillery Fair, which will be returning to the Johannesburg War Museum this August. This exclusive spirits showcase will be treating visitors to a wide selection of rare hand crafted spirits from across the world, along with other seasonal favourites that each distillery is known for.

Spirit enthusiast’s will be able to swirl, sip and taste from the extensive selection while meeting with the alchemists and mixologists in person. Sit back and enjoy your favourite drink from over 120 varietals under the wing of a plane or alongside a tank or submarine. It's truly an experience like no other.

Guests will also get the opportunity to join the gin or whisky masterclasses on offer each evening, led by the distillers and mixologists. Here, you'll learn about the history and flavours synonymous with each distillery. Be guided through pairings and tastings in the turret room of the museum.

There will also be live entertainment provided by top South African bands, performing their most loved acoustic hits in story telling sessions. Friday evening will feature Rubber Duc and Saturday is more orientated around soulful jazz and classic guitar.
