About this Event

Celebrate the festive season(s) — whichever ones you're into — at Upstart and Crow. You're invited to Top Shelf, an evening of curated reading recommendations and delicious drinks that pair well with your next favourite book.

Can you believe we've been doing this for five years and every single person who has ever attended a Top Shelf says it's the "best event of all time" and "way better than buying books without mood lighting and fun beverages"?

If you have holiday shopping to do, our book sommeliers will help you choose the perfect read for everyone on your holiday list, even if the only person on that list is you. No judgement! Only wine, treats, surprises and immaculate vibes.

The event starts at 6:30 and runs until 9 p.m. — you do not need to be on time! Come when it suits. Your ticket includes one drink and a $25 store credit.

Tickets: $40

Please note this event is at 6:30 p.m.! Due to a technical issue with Eventbrite, the time may display differently for you.
