LIVERMORE, CA — Elections are coming up, but some may be more entertaining than others, and can perhaps offset stress from more serious elections. At the Tri-Valley Craft Cocktail Competition on May 2, guests will get to sample 22 original cocktails prepared by restaurants from across the region, and vote for their favorite.
Guests will move through decorated booths, sample curated bites from downtown Livermore restaurants, browse a silent auction with themed gift baskets and experiences, and take part in cocktail voting before the event ends with an awards presentation.
General admission costs $80, with entry at 4:30 p.m. General admission tickets include a souvenir shot glass for tastings, a drink card listing all participating establishments, and one voting token.
Premium admission costs $150 and gets you in at 4 p.m. Premium tickets include everything in general admission, in addition a second voting token and a 15-ounce TVC3 2026 souvenir cocktail glass.
Proceeds benefit the Pacific Chamber Orchestra's concerts and in-school music education.
The participating cocktail spots include:
Food will be provided by First Street Alehouse, Hops & Sessions, Robek’s, Sauced BBQ & Spirits, Uncle Yu’s, and Wingen Bakery, according to the event information.
