Join us for our first Cocktail Hour of the festival and where poetry and cocktails will combine to form the greatest mix of all! Mixologists from Ruma are ready to lead you through a host of cracking cocktails, introducing you to each drink with a story and the history of each tipple. The incredible poet, author and comedian Kate Fox, will add to this heady mix of rum and rhyme with a poem to accompany each drink. Ticket price covers the cocktails (and poetry) at this workshop.
Kate Fox is an award-winning stand-up poet, writer and broadcaster regular on Radio 4 and Radio 3s The Verb. She has been Poet in Residence for Glastonbury Festival and is one of this year's Forward Prize judges. She writes and performs about Northernness, neurodiversity, class and humour.
