Opening Party

Friday the 31st October 2025 is when it all starts…

To celebrate the 2nd year of Wales Whisky Fest and the coinciding 160th anniversary of Lewis Carroll’s famous book, this year’s Dinner will have an Alice in Wonderland theme.

This year’s festival opening party is proudly held in partnership with Penderyn Distillery and the Alice in wonderland theme will celebrate Lewis Carroll’s link to Llandudno. The dinner will include a specially selected four course whisky paired meal with some fun surprises based on the book.

The dress code is smart party wear, and we welcome anyone embracing the theme with top hats, bunny ears, large pocket watches, or any other Alice in Wonderland themed attire (fitting for the occasion).

We will once again have guest speakers from the whisky world and some other surprises to be announced. Tickets are limited to 110 places and are expected to sell out fast as with last year’s dinner.

The evening will begin with doors opening at 6pm and welcome drinks, to be seated for dinner at 6:30pm. Dietary requirements will be catered for so please state your needs upon booking along with any accessibility requirements so we can improve your experience.
