We always look forward to bringing you our annual Tales of the Cocktail preview show! As always, we are joined by the Tales of the Cocktail Foundation’s CEO and friend of the show, Eileen Wayner. We let you know everything you need to know about this year’s event – the most important drinks business conference and showcase on the planet! We discuss the events, activities, programs, and much, much more!
Eileen joins us at the Southern Food and Beverage Museum, our usual haunt, to tape this episode. She lets us know about the whole enchilada – the tasting rooms, seminars, parties, and all the 411 you need to attend Tales of the Cocktail whether you are an industry professional or a serious drinks enthusiast. This includes how ticketing works, the dates, and even lodging options.
As we do every year, we talk about new programming and themes for the event. We discuss how the organization and the conference itself continue to evolve. We touch on the Beyond the Bar program that focuses on the well-being of industry members and their commitment to moving towards zero waste. Also, we touch on the year-round work the foundation does to support the drinks business and, critically, the individual professionals who make it all happen!
There’s a lot to unpack in this episode, but if you are coming to Tales or are thinking about it (or just want to learn more about the event), you will want to catch this one! We will be there all week – come say hi!
