About this Event
Rummin' is back for its 5th year!
The event that started it all...
5-years ago we had the idea of creating a rum festival in Newark and then ever since you have never stopped asking us when the next one will be! The OG event at The Duck is back with far too much rum (if there ever was such a thing), Caribbean vibes, live reggae and food for the soul.
This staple of Newark's event calendar is back with everything you'd expect - we be rummin'
Drinks Tokens
This year included with every pre-purchased ticket we will be giving you a drinks token for you to redeem at the event - consider it a thank you for your years of support. Each token can be redeemed for any single Bacardi rum & mixer - FREE drink on us. Drinks tokens must be collected at first admission and are not included with any tickets purchased on the gate.
Rum
We've selected over 100s rums for you to sample from all around the world, some household names and some local experiments. Each rum is included in our menu with a description and a pairing suggestion. You pick, we serve, everyone is a winner.
In addition to all our featured rums we have rum cocktails and even some frozen rum slushies! Basically we have 100% gone overboard with rum - and we love it.

Food
Our resident kitchen Snap & Dabble will be switching up their menu as always to bring you a selection of soulful favourites, including goat curry and jerk chicken (vegan options are also available). They will be serving food throughout the event.
If this isn't your thing then there are also plenty of local resturants and takeaways close to the venue - just remember that no food purchased outside of the venue is permitted inside the venue.
