30 Apr World Whisky Day 2018 events at Tokyo Bird and Osaka Trading Co.

Tokyo Bird and our sister venue Osaka Trading Co. at Tramsheds are excited to announce our calendar of events ahead of World Whisky Day, this year on Saturday 19 May.

This year’s events promise to be the biggest yet, says Jason Ang, one of the owner-operators of both venues. “We’ve been seeing growth not just in Japanese and Scotch whiskies, but also Australian and other world whiskies in our venues,” he says. “We like that World Whisky Day, and indeed the entire week, is an opportunity to enjoy and celebrate this diverse category in various ways – whether that’s in cocktails, whisky flights or a whisky matching dinner.”

This will be Tokyo Bird’s fourth annual World Whisky Day and Osaka Trading Co.’s second. As in prior years, events are expected to be at capacity so get your bookings and tickets now!
