East Imperial Gin Jubilee

This February, Auckland will join the ranks of a handful of cities selected to play host to the world's finest gin purveyors.
Prepare to be spoilt for choice gin drinkers, Auckland is scheduled to play host to the annual East Imperial Gin Jubilee.
Joining the likes of Kuala Lumpur, Hong Kong, Phnom Penh, Bangkok and Singapore, 33 bars located around the city will showcase their finest gin cocktails, with in-house mixologists front and centre from February 27 until March 4.
The annual gin festival brings together some of the world’s finest gins, bars and bartenders, and is celebrated by thousands of gin novices and aficionados alike. The aim of East Imperial Gin Jubilee is to bring people together across a range of different venues to explore gin culture and sample creative and inventive variations of the classic Gin and Tonic.
