Visitors to the city’s pubs, clubs and bars are being invited to sample some of Southampton’s signature serves as Southampton Cocktail Week returns on 29th August 2025 through to 7th September.
For just £5, you can receive a wristband that will get you a voucher for a free cocktail at participating venues, as well as other goodies and special offers. More than 20 venues from across the city have signed up to the initiative so far – including Orange Rooms, Heartbreakers and Figurati – and there are still way more to come.
Wristband wearers will also get the chance to access exclusive masterclasses and themed events for an extra £5. Mocktails, low alcohol and non-alcoholic options will also be available.
Plus, you’ll receive a detailed map of Southampton highlighting all the venues involved, making it easy to plan your night.
Sponsored by GO! Southampton and Pernod Ricard, the week is a celebration of Southampton’s vibrant hospitality industry and aims to drive footfall to some of the city’s most beloved bars.
Owner of Orange Rooms Gary Bennetton commented: “Many hospitality venues took a big hit post-pandemic and are still struggling amidst the cost of living crisis. For me, Southampton Cocktail Week is all about showing off Southampton’s nightlife and the diverse mix of venues across the city.”
Flo Bevis, Marketing Manager at GO! Southampton said: “We’re really proud to support the amazing local businesses that make up the city’s hospitality trade. This week is an opportunity to try somewhere new, brush up on your mixology skills and enjoy a great night out in the heart of the city.”
