Bartenders' Choice Awards

NOMINATIONS TOUR 2026


We’re starting the year the best way we know how, on the road. The BCA Nominations Tour 2026 travels across the Nordics in January, announcing over 200 nominees and celebrating the people and places shaping our bar culture.

Expect great drinks, great company, and a shared love for the craft of cocktails. With the support of our partners, we’re raising the energy, spotlighting talent, and kicking off the road to the Bartenders Choice Awards 2026.

Good times and delicious drinks. See you there, cheers!
