UK Rum Festivals are run by husband and wife team, Jon & Debbie Rees alongside family friend Aled Williams. The team started in Cardiff in 2002 after becoming fed up with the same old rum being available everywhere and very little knowledge or appreciation for this fine spirit and a flippant attitude towards cocktail making.
The team want to make sure the events are fun and beneficial for exhibitors and attendees and we'd love to hear your feedback so we can continue to improve the events!
Now the festival is on its 6th year and returning to Bristol with even more rums (over 100!) and a bigger capacity!
With exhibitors displaying their best liquors, you don't only get a chance to taste rum but also to find out more about the process from cane to bottle. Every drop of rum has a story to
...Read More tell.
And if one of the free samples catch your special attention, it can be purchased from the festival!
The festival area also includes chill-out zones all over The Passenger Shed to catch up with your friends and sip on a delicious rum-infused cocktail mixed at one of the three cocktail bars, live music that will invite you to swing your hips and street foods from all over the world. From Caribbean cuisine to BBQ food, your culinary world trip will be best enjoyed with a glass of rum!
The UK Rum Festival isn't just an event, it's a lifestyle filled with colour and love for the precious beverage, a love that we want to share with you.
