Espresso Martini Festival

Espresso Martini Festival is returning to Fish Lane for its 2nd year, ready to shake and stir the caffeinated cocktail scene once again on the Ekka public holiday.

Here in Brisbane's funkiest laneway you can sip your way around a selection of creative concoctions by Fish Lane favourite’s Hello Please and Ol’ School Fish'n'Chippery, accompanied by a selection of Vietnamese street eats and seafood surprises.

This year’s cocktails will feature the likes of a condensed milk ice cream cold drip vanilla martini and a rum salted golden syrup espresso martini, with three more decadent concoctions yet to be announced.

Maris Cook, of South Brisbane’s much-loved Hello Please says “After the success of the event last year, it was a no brainer to bring back the Espresso Martini Festival to the thriving Brisbane dining precinct Fish Lane. This year guests can expect to enjoy a range of different twists on classic espresso martinis, paired with the delicious flavours of Hello Please and Ol’ School.”

Keep cravings in line with a menu of street food such as a spicy fish cake bao, potato scallop szechuan curry mayo, prawn crackers or keep things classic with a fish dim sim – all ready to be washed down by handcrafted cocktails.

As well as the headline act espresso martini, the festival will also offer a range of 4 Pines beer, Save our Souls wine and a range of soft drinks.

Meanwhile DJ duo Ben Chiu and Thirsty Paul from A Love Supreme will be bringing a night full of soul, disco and jazz funk under the stars.

Tickets are $45 per person (plus booking fee) and include an espresso martini on arrival to get your engine firing, plus a selection of street eats and bites from the team at Hello Please and Ol’ School.

Need to know - This is an uber-popular event that sells out really early so don't delay in booking tickets.
