We are so back. Raleigh Mag’s annual Best Bartender noms are here (!), and it’s time to hit the bars—strictly for “research” (*wink, wink*).
Sip on, cast your vote, then catch the city’s top ’tenders mixing it up live at The Cocktail Classic—our can’t-miss, back-and-better annual bash Saturday, Nov. 15 at The Exchange Raleigh.
Your golden ticket (read: get it before it sells out) gets you unlimited ’tails crafted by the city’s finest with top-tier labels, plus bites, beats and buzzy vibes all night long—not to mention ops to glow-up or belly up at your mic’d up tender-of-choice’s cocktail demo.
Tickets are available now—and voting opens Oct. 1, so study up… then sip, support and stay tuned. Follow @raleighmagazine and sign up for our free inbox drop for key dates and party deets. *Early bird tix end Nov. 1* cocktailclassicraleigh.com
