Whisky Live At The Games 2009

INTRODUCTION

After a successful first year in this new venue, Whisky Live at the Games will continue to improve and grow. The “At the Games” concept has been expanded to “On the Docks”. In keeping with the concept of “only the biggest and the best”, WHISKY LIVE at the Games will conduct only two tasting events in conjunction with the Highland Games and two WHISKY LIVE on the Docks tasting events in conjunction with two international boat shows in key locations.

WHISKY LIVE at the Games returns to the Texas Highland Games and Scottish Festival, June 6-7, 2009 in Arlington, TX (limited stands) and the Caledonian Club of San Francisco Highland Games and Scottish Festival, Sept. 5-6, 2009 at the Alameda County Fairgrounds. Both events are established Scottish festivals with a long standing history that attract over 6000 and 25,000 people respectively.

Now in its second year, the games partnership with Whisky Live is a growing success. Together, they have created an expanded tasting event that is a large and integral part of the festival. The whisky tasting will be open for the duration of the games allowing the whiskies of the world to showcase their products to consumers and trade for two full days.

New for the Games in 2009

In Texas, we will have a larger tent with more area for the tasting event.

In Pleasanton, we have moved the tasting to a new building that is more than double in size and AIR CONDITIONED! This building will have direct access to a dedicated garden area with its own entertainment and area for cigars!
