Whisky Abbey Week – Beyond the Festival
The Whisky Abbey Festival isn’t just a weekend — it’s an entire week of whisky experiences across Melbourne. In the days leading up to the festival, we’ll be hosting a series of special events with our partner bars and restaurants, bringing distillers, ambassadors, and whisky lovers together in more intimate settings.
Expect one-off dinners, collaborative tastings, and bar takeovers featuring some of our visiting guests from around the world. From relaxed whisky and food pairings to behind-the-scenes talks and meet-the-maker sessions, it’s your chance to experience the Abbey spirit all week long.
What’s Coming
- Exclusive whisky dinners with international guests
- Pop-up tastings and collaborative cocktails at partner bars
- Meet-the-maker evenings and limited-edition bottle drops
- Special releases and themed menus inspired by the festival
The full Whisky Abbey Week calendar will be announced soon.
