A spirits festival dedicated to the old, rare, exclusive, special, unique spirits of this world. A gathering of likeminded people who prefer open bottles over closed ones and enjoy sharing drams to remember with friends. A place to create liquid memories.Vintage Spirits Festival focuses on quality, not quantity, and so we invite a very select group of exhibitors and their bottles to the festival.
The location is the beautiful heritage site of De Hoorn. It is a former brewery and offers the perfect atmosphere to let your drams taste even better.
Each visitor is welcomed as a friend. With your ticket, you will get a tasting glass and a good starting amount of tokens (40 tokens, value = 50 euro). Sample bottles are available too, if you want to take home some of the gems on offer.
We will limit the number of exhibitors to a maximum of 12, to ensure a relaxed atmosphere. We will also limit the number of tickets sold, for the same reason: we want a nice and relaxed atmosphere among spirits-lovers!
You will find the line-up of exhibitors on our website!
TWO SPECIAL MASTERCLASSES
Each exhibitor offers up one bottle that means something to them, and these bottles will be opened for masterclasses during the festival. These will be held in the special tasting room in the Skybox at the seventh floor, with a fantastic view of Leuven. We'll add the line-ups and ticket sales later, but you can join a masterclass at 13.00h and 16.00h! Signing up for one of these can be done through the ticketing system.
