The 2023 Drinks Holiday Calendar

As we toast goodbye to 2022, many of us are looking forward to celebrating a New Year. These days, it can seem like there’s a holiday for everything. Indeed, the marketing gurus behind some of your favorite brands have created holidays like World Nutella Day (February 5), while fandoms have caused many new holidays to pop up, like one of our personal favorites, International Talk Like a Pirate Day (September 19).

Here at ReserveBar, one of our favorite ways to celebrate compelling and unique spirits is by raising a glass on their holiday. After all, who doesn’t love a reason to celebrate a spirited day? We’ve gathered all the wine, beer, and spirit-related holidays in one handy article so you can celebrate your favorite drinks all year long!

NOTE: Some of the holidays included are not drink specific but are often observed in the bartending industry.
