\"ManchesterManchester\u2019s first ever rum festival is coming to town this year, thanks to freelance drinks curator Dave Marsland, aka the Drinks Enthusiast<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Located at Revoluci\u00f3n De Cuba<\/a>, the festival will be held on Saturday 3rd June, and will boast over 40 types of rum including Bacardi<\/a>, Chairman\u2019s Reserve<\/a>, Diplom\u00e1tico, Sailor Jerry<\/a> and Mezan. Brunches, afterparties and shenanigans galore will mean it\u2019ll be a Caribbean affair from dusk \u2019til dawn.<\/p>\n

Tickets cost \u00a315 for the festival (brunches and afterparties not included) which runs from 12pm-5pm, and include a welcome drink by sponsor Coco Re\u2019al, along with a taster from each of the 15 stalls as you work your way round exploring the top brands.<\/p>\n

And if that\u2019s not enough booze for you, a team of mixologists and brand ambassadors will be on hand at the cocktail bar serving up a selection of rum cocktail favourites.*<\/p>\n

Dave Marsland said \u201cRum is a staple within the Manchester bar scene, especially with the popularity of venues such as Revoluci\u00f3n De Cuba, so I wanted to celebrate it! There\u2019s so many incredible rum brands I felt the best way to celebrate them would be with a festival.<\/p>\n

\"Manchester<\/p>\n

The festival will host entertainment, themed food and drinks offers and gifts, so we really are going all out, plus there\u2019ll be events running throughout the day to get everyone in Manchester involved. I\u2019m just looking forward to meeting guests on the day and seeing how popular the already much-loved brands become.\u201d<\/p>\n

Details for brunches and afterparties and further rum promotions will be announced soon, but here\u2019s how to purchase your ticket to the main festival – www.manchesterrumfestival.com\/whats-on<\/a><\/p>\n
