ABOUT IBW

A week long Celebration of Craft, Community, and Creativity, spotlighting the nation’s unique talent.

WORLD WIDE BARTENDER WEEK

Conceptualised and produced by multimedia PR and marketing agency, Hanna Lee Communications, Worldwide Bartender Week celebrates bartending as a noble career and spotlights storytelling in the bar community globally. New York Bartender Week’s first edition of Worldwide Bartender Week took place from 18-24 November, 2024. As part of Worldwide Bartender Week, the initiative is expanding across the U.S. and globally in 2025.

INDIA BARTENDER WEEK

What began as part of the New York Bartender Week by Hanna Lee has now made its way to India’s shores as India Bartender Week (IBW). An initiative spearheaded by industry stalwarts – Vikram Achanta, Minakshi Singh, and Yangdup Lama – IBW is set to honour the bar trade in India. It’s more than just an event – it’s a movement that celebrates the craft of bartending while focusing on innovation, community, and global networking. A place where conversations ignite, ideas flourish, and connections come alive over clinking glasses – this is the true spirit of IBW.
