The Whisky Show 2009

The Great Hall in London’s Guildhall has been selected as a suitably beautiful setting for The Whisky Show, as well as for its ideal location in the heart of the “Square Mile”, offering a luxury tasting event in sumptuous surroundings. Guildhall has been the City powerhouse since the twelfth century. In an era when the Lord Mayor of London rivalled the monarch for influence and prestige, this was where he and the ruling merchant class held court, fine-tuned the laws and trading regulations that helped create London’s wealth.

Today, 800 years on, Guildhall is still home of the City of London Corporation, and acts as a grand setting for glittering banquets in honour of visiting Heads of State and other dignitaries, royal occasions, and receptions for major historical anniversaries.

West Crypt

The Whisky Lounge below the Main Hall will feature live and exciting modern Scottish music by Roddy Hart and dance under the vaulted arches of the famous Guildhall Crypt. The Whisky Lounge is designed to help visitors relax and savour the experience – or join in the dancing!
