With events such as Rosé Revolution and Negroni Week in their back pocket, Fish Lane Arts Precinct’s venues are banding together once again to shake up a brand new event … say bienvenidos to MARCH INTO MARGARITA!
Margy lovers are set to be spoiled with a roster of new tequila-based tipples that can be enjoyed for the whole month of March. Bar Brutus, Chu the Phat, Hello Please, Kiki Kiosk, Midtown, Southside and Saccharomyces will all be serving up a variety of creative quenchers made with Espolòn Tequila that embodies the essence of Mexico’s land and culture.
Expect the unexpected with the “always on” lineup of cocktails, as some margs aim to inject a little sweetness and others a little spice to your step.
In true Fish Lane fashion, the party won’t end there. Dig out your sombreros as four of the Fish Lane retailers are set to host epic fiestas within their venues. Southside Restaurant is hosting the inaugural Margarita event, Margs-A-Million, on Sunday, March 3.
