Science World to Host Award-Winning Bartenders at Science of Cocktail Event!

Darpan News Desk, 20 Jan, 2016 03:37 PM
    Think molecular mixology, snappy suits and dazzling dresses. For one night only, the Science of Cocktails will transform Science World at TELUS World of Science into Vancouver’s largest cocktail laboratory of the year. Science World is inviting Vancouverites to mix, mingle and be merry, for a great cause. This fundraising event will help provide cost-free field trips for students in need across the Lower Mainland under Science World’s Class Field Trip Program.
     
    The snazzy open bar event boasts 25 different bar stations serving cocktails especially crafted by award-winning bartenders along with mouth-watering food pairings, thoughtfully prepared by Railtown Catering. In true Science World fashion, guests will have all kinds of stations to interact and tinker with and there will also be challenges throughout the evening where guests can win exciting prizes such as- a Tesla Motors package, where the winner gets to drive a Tesla for an evening; a weekend stay at Fairmont Pacific Rim for 2 people plus breakfast at ORU (valued at $780); a SmartyPantz Group Escape Experience for 8 people; and more.
     
    One of the highlights of the event will be the Bartender Showdown where Vancouver’s top bartenders will be competing to win the evening’s Cocktail Competition, awarded by a panel of industry judges. Winner will receive a trophy made of a 3D printed martini glass designed for astronauts to use in space. Guests will get to vote for their favourite cocktails through their personal drink passports. Other segments include Shake Competition, compete with your friends and guests with a friendly and fun shaker competition; and Smell Station, challenge your sense of smell with these different aromatics used in gin infusions. 
     
    Science of Cocktails will certainly be a highlight of 2016 in the local scene. If you haven't already, now is your chance to book a spot and experience an incredible evening. 
     
    Group Tickets for 10+ guests are available through 604.443.7500
