Huge gin festival will return to Edinburgh Corn Exchange with brand new cocktail area

Calling all gin-lovers, a huge gin festival is set to return to the Corn Exchange in Edinburgh this April.

The two-day festival, called the 'Big Big Gin Festival', is taking place on April Sat 25-Sun 26 at Edinburgh Corn Exchange.

This year promises to be 'refreshingly different' from the previous festival, which won the ‘Scottish Gin Event of the Year’ at the 2019 Scottish Gin Awards.

This time the festival is set to unveil a brand new cocktail area alongside its usual masterclasses, workshops and demonstrations.

For the gin connoisseurs, there will be a "meet the makers" area, showcasing a host of different gins, from Kopparberg gin to one called "The Glasweigan".

Looking ahead to the upcoming festival, owner of Edinburgh Corn Exchange and creator of the Big Big Gin Festival, Paul DeMarco, said: "The Big Big Gin Festival is now officially the best Scottish gin event of the year, so we understand visitor expectations will be high.

"Thankfully, we’ve got a whole host of fantastic names on board, from well-established big brands to exciting new emerging makers, and we’re confident there’ll be plenty to please the palate of even the most discerning gin drinker!"

The April festival will see the return of the 'exclusive VIP area' and it's not just the classic G and T which will lure you in.

In addition to the gin, you can expect face painting, live music, selfie walls and even a photobooth.

Tickets for this highly anticipated event are already limited. You can book your tickets here.
