Whiskey festivals live or die on how many distilleries show up, and this downtown afternoon tasting puts a roomful in one place on August 22, 2026. It is a sit-and-sip event built around comparing pours rather than a concert with drinks attached.
The session runs 2:30 to 6 PM at a downtown Denver location listed on the Eventbrite page, which is also where tickets and the exact venue are posted. This is a 21-and-up event.

Buy ahead, since tasting festivals cap attendance by the glass. Confirm the final venue on Eventbrite closer to the date, and plan a ride downtown rather than driving.
