What is Portland Cocktail Week?
Portland Cocktail Week is where bartenders network, learn and take big strides toward the next step in their careers. Now in its eleventh year, Portland Cocktail Week has evolved into an entirely business oriented program offering classes in six areas of expertise:
-
- Anti-Waste
- Applied Sciences
- Bartending & Hospitality
- Bar Ownership
- Bar Management
- Consulting
To ensure Portland Cocktail Week offers the highest level and most diverse bar business class offerings, we invite experts of each of our six Majors to curate an informative, engaging and valuable classes that will best guide our students to the next phase of their careers.
Classes, events and activities at Portland Cocktail Week are always free of charge for working bartenders. Our program is entirely subsidized and supported by beverage, spirits and bar adjacent companies who are invested in the future of our industry and the people who continue to push it forward.
Portland Cocktail Week will be back November 8-13, 2020 in Portland, Oregon. We’d love to see you there.
Join us in Portland:
Sign up for a Bartender Pass
Open to working bartenders, the PDXCW Bartender Pass gets you access to all events and classes on a first-come, first-served basis.
It’s absolutely free, and doesn’t require a week-long commitment like the student program – you just need to be a working bartender who’s not currently representing a brand.
