TICKETS are now available for Stirling SpiritFEST 2023, which will be coming back to the city this autumn.

Held on Friday, October 17, the ten-day celebration of Scottish spirits will return and incorporate the long established Stirling Whisky Festival and Stirling Gin Festival.

Across the ten days, guests can expect a range of spirit workshops and masterclasses alongside a range of exhibitors offering free samples of their finest gins and drams.

June McCann, event organiser, said: “Our inaugural SpiritFEST was a massive success with people travelling from across the UK to attend our events.

“As well as our gin and whisky festivals, we will host a range of intimate events over the 10 days including our spooky gin tasting and ghost walk at the Old Town Jail, a glass blowing and whisky tasting evening with Angels’ Share glass and a rum event too!”

Among the exhibitors this year will be Rock Rose, Gin Bothy, Indie Brands, Downpour and Pilgrims. Masterclasses will be hosted Tomintoul, Stirling Distillery and Marussa Beverages.
