The week will be based at the first floor bar in Selfridges, at the end of Oxford Street, which will be transformed into a Speakeasy for the duration of the week. There will be seminars, pop-up bars, tastings, workshops and shaking and making lessons for big cocktail fans.
All of the week's partner venues will be offering £4 cocktails throughout the week, and participants who pick up their wristband at the start of proceedings will also be able to use the Routemaster bus for free.
