Cheers to the touring Gin Festival making its return to Leeds

The Gin festival is back in Leeds this year.

GIN lovers of Leeds rejoice as a whole weekend will be dedicated to the Mother’s Ruin.

GinFestival.com, the UK’s original touring festival of gin, has announced it will be returning to the city as it takes over the Town Hall.

The Gin Festival brings you the best gin.

There will be lively bars, a generous and informative brand room and a creative cocktail bar all under one roof.

On the day gin-goers will get their own copa glass with a funky pocket-sized brochure to guide them through their Gin Festival journey.

There will be varieties from small craft distilleries using locally foraged botanicals and exotic examples of contemporary gins in fantastic flavours.

And a decent gin is of course, made with the right mixer and the new Schweppes 1783 range has been picked out to make the perfect pairing.

Try the new Schweppes range of mixers.

Flavours will include Crisp, Light and Cucumber Tonic Water, Ginger Ale​ and Salty Lemon.

Cut the queues at the bar as a new cashless system allows you to top up your drink credit before-hand.

The festival will be over the weekend of June 22 to 24 with sessions on Friday, 6.30pm-11pm; Saturday, 12.30pm-5pm and 6.30pm to 11pm; Sunday, 12.30pm-5pm.
