Cinq à Sept Happy Hours

Drop in to these elevated happy hours at our bar partners across the city during Vancouver Cocktail Week

Between the daytime seminars and evening events, head straight to one of our VCW bar partners to enjoy these elevated happy hours based on the French concept of the “cinq à sept”—5 to 7 pm, the playful hours between work and family life. (Hours vary though, so check with the venues for times.)

Expect VCW signature cocktails, snacks, entertainment, socializing and more.

Note that these events are not ticketed; however, some establishments may recommend reservations, so call ahead to secure a seat.

Vancouver Cocktail Week Cinq à Sept happy hours run nightly, March 1-8.
