Whisky Live Festival

The Whisky Live Festival offers guests a passport to a haven reserved solely for whisky for its 25th edition.

Over three evenings, guests can taste more than 200 South African and international whiskies, meet the people who make them and buy their favourites on site.

The festival features a carefully curated collection of world-class whiskies, spanning rare gems to time-honoured favourites and representing the crème de la crème of whiskies, along with masterclasses promising an unforgettable odyssey for the palate. Each masterclass is hosted by a different brand: day 1 is hosted by The Dalmore Whisky, day 2 is hosted by Johnnie Walker, and day 3 is to be announced soon.

General admission tickets earn guests access to the Whisky Live tasting hall and include 18 tasting tokens. The token values are based on the value of the whisky being tasted, which means the more expensive or exclusive the whisky, the more tokens it costs.

Masterclass tickets give guests a chance to learn more about whisky from various experts in the industry. A combo ticket gives guests access to the festival and one of the Masterclasses, but a Masterclass ticket alone does not grant general festival access.

The public VIP Lounge ticket provides guests with a bespoke premium experience accompanied by a delicious dinner and harvest table and a private bar with whisky, wine, champagne and soft drinks, and on-arrival snacks. This ticket also includes comfortable seating, exclusive VIP service throughout the night, and 20 tasting tokens.
