Luxury cocktails, live music, street food and some of London’s best bars come together for one of the capital’s most anticipated summer events.
If you’re looking for a summer evening with great drinks, good food and a lively atmosphere, Cocktails in the City is returning to Bedford Square Garden from 6–8 August, bringing together some of London’s most celebrated bars in one beautiful setting.
Just moments from Oxford Street, the historic private garden will once again transform into a vibrant cocktail village, where guests can sample signature serves from more than 20 of London’s top bars, with bespoke festival cocktails priced from £10.
New for 2026 is The Food Village, introducing a dedicated dining experience for the first time. Festival-goers can enjoy small plates from a curated line-up of restaurants and chefs, including Dim Sum Library, the Hong Kong favourite making its London debut.
Alongside the drinks, visitors can enjoy cocktail masterclasses, tasting rooms, a DJ-led silent disco, live music and garden games including pétanque, table tennis and cornhole, making it an ideal evening out with friends or colleagues.
Whether you’re discovering a new favourite cocktail bar or simply soaking up the atmosphere in one of London’s most picturesque private gardens, Cocktails in the City promises a memorable celebration of the capital’s vibrant drinks scene.
