Jakarta Cocktail Week 2026

The first Jakarta Cocktail Week (JCW) runs from Tuesday 24 to Saturday 28 November 2026. It is organised by a committee of the city's bar owners and hospitality figures, including people behind The Union Group, The Golden Tooth and Salty Fish, Modernhaus, OSMO, HATS and Between The Sips.

Programme: the opening party is at The Gunawarman on 24 November, with three Bangkok bartenders. From 25 to 28 November, teams from Hong Kong, Shanghai, Osaka, Singapore, Penang, Bangkok, Taipei, Seoul and Ho Chi Minh City take over Jakarta bars for one night each, among them Nautilus, St. Regis Bar, Koda, Cosmo Pony, Osmo, The Golden Tooth, TARA, Modernhaus, Truce, Carrots, Salty Fish and The Cocktail Club. Each evening is grouped around one part of the city. Nightcaps follow at Jaya Pub, Bottom Parlour and Duckdown Bar.

Cocktail Village takes place on Friday 27 November at Sudirman Hall, Sequis Tower, SCBD, with brand and food booths, music, masterclasses and panels, and a Star Bar donating its profits to charity. The week closes on Saturday 28 November at Artesian Bar, The Langham, with Andrew Ho of Hope & Sesame, Guangzhou.
