Juniperlooza 2020–21

Overview

Summer in Melbourne pretty much screams for a crisp, gin-infused tipple, enjoyed in the sunshine, overlooking some water. And once again, local gin festival Juniperlooza is setting you up for success. This time, for its 2021 edition, the festival is running for the entire sunny season — and taking over Pilgrim Bar on the Yarra River in the process.

The gin-soaked revelry will see a variety of boutique producers from both overseas and Australia showing off their wares. Keen? Currently thinking about all those G&Ts? It's a simple case of making a booking whenever suits you, heading by and getting stuck into your favourite gin drinks — with the change of format reflecting how different this year is. And, if you can't get enough of the botanical stuff, you can opt for Pilgrim's bottomless Gin & Tapas offer, which will cost you $59 per person for two hours of food and booze. The deal is available Available between 4–7pm on Thursdays and 12–6pm Friday through Sunday.

The Juniperlooza Gin Bar is also hosting interactive Talk & Taste sessions every Saturday from February 6 till March 27. The sessions are hosted by a raft of local and interstate producers, who will set up pop-up bars to showcase their range, as well as and whip up tasty cocktails.
