COCKTAIL MASTERCLASS! 

Exhibitors and Full Day ticket holders join us for After Event Drinks from 4-7pm. This will include a Cocktail Masterclass with Blackpool Rock Gin! 

A unique, vibrant and refreshing, small batch premium gin. Blackpool Rock Gin is inspired by the seaside and made with true British spirit.

Blackpool Rock Gin is expertly distilled and hand crafted, using 10 premium botanicals, including those foraged right here on the Fylde Coast. A truly craft product, we painstakingly hand label and bottle every gin ourselves, ensuring the highest of quality.

“Our wonderful base gin, is made using the London Dry standard, using a single source spirit, produced right here in the North West of England. We then add real Blackpool Rock from one of the oldest rock factories in Blackpool. After some technical wizardry and very fine filtering, we are left with our lovely, subtly sweet, Blackpool Rock Gin.”
