First off, thank you to everybody who came out to support over the last couple of days for the return of the Bartenders' Shakedown at The Improv in CityPlace September 18-21, 2022! Next THANK YOU to all of the competitors, judges and staff that helped execute this awesome event.


This bartending competition challenges flair bartenders and mixologists alike. All are judged on creating amazing unique cocktails with sponsor products. Like wise they then presented these cocktails with bottle flipping, shaker spinning, glass tossing cocktails.

Cocktails are judged on taste, aroma, presentation, originality and bartending technique.
Flair is judged on showmanship, smoothness, originality and difficulty.
