The third annual Toronto Cocktail Festival will once again raise a toast to the art of the cocktail and to the vibrant culture that surrounds it. Building on a successful inaugural year, TCF has become a destination event that celebrates the city’s dynamic food-and-drink scene—one powered by creativity, community, and world-class talent. Toronto’s multi-award-winning bartenders, brand ambassadors and chefs continue to make this an exciting culinary event that gives them the spotlight they deserve—and serves up exceptional experiences for consumers, too.

Cinq à Sept Happy Hours:
Drop in to these elevated happy hours at our bar partners across the city during Toronto Cocktail Festival
Between the daytime seminars and evening events, head straight to one of our TCF 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 TCF 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.
