With each ticket, guests can enjoy sampling the smoked bites and/or bevvies from each station, smoked cocktails from Bulleit, Mezcal Carreno, sip Ford’s Gin from a dry ice Negroni fountain, and make sage sticks and enjoy drinks from Ketel One Botanicals, Johnnie Walker will be slinging cocktails, and lots of interactive entertainment such as a DJ, firebreather, magician and more.
Tickets for Smoked! include food and drink samples from each station and all the activities and fun surprises for which the event has become known. General admission is $50 per ticket; VIP tickets, which include exclusive early entrance at noon, are $60. Both GA and VIP include drinks, food, entertainment and any takeaways.
Tickets are limited and will sell out, just like they did last year. This is a 21+ year old event and that does mean that we can’t have babies or new borns at the event for liability reasons. Please no animals either. Thank you for understanding!
