Polly Checkland Harding

Manchester Gin Festival at Victoria Baths has sold out – our competition is a chance to get your hands on a pair of tickets.

This is the third year of Manchester Gin Festival at Victoria Baths and, yet again, the event has sold out over a month ahead. As the official event page will tell you, your only chance of getting tickets in your hot and sticky is to take a whirl on the waitlist – or, you can increase your chances by entering this competition. The festival showcases over 100 varieties of the slim and subtle stuff in the stunning surrounds of a Grade II-listed Victorian swimming baths, with live entertainment, talks and food aplenty. Enter our competition and you stand a chance of winning a pair of tickets to your pick of one of six sessions running 25-27 March 2016.

WIN tickets to the sold out Manchester Gin Festival in stunning surrounds

Enter our competition and you stand the chance of being one of two readers to win a pair of tickets one session at Victoria Baths, along with four drinks tokens to use at the festival. Each token gets you one drink (tokens are usually £5 each), with Fever Tree tonic and a fresh garnish – something to get you started, anyway, along with the free samples from seven of the distilleries (Pinkster, Adnams, Masons, Robin of Locksley, Thomas Dakin, Brockmans and London Distillery). There will also be live music from Holder and Smith, who, we’re told, also get in among the crowd to perform magic tricks, and a chance to stock your liquor cupboard with some very special vintage gins. To enter, all you have to do is enter your details in the form below. The competition closes at 10am on Tuesday 8 March – good luck!
