🕐 Check-in starts at 3 PM
🍸 Cocktail contest runs from 3 PM to 7 PM
🏙️ Hit participating bars in any order — you decide your crawl route!
Sample signature cocktails at each stop and vote for your favorites.
Then, starting at 6 PM, head to Jordan Block for the official after-party featuring free games, and great company. Confirmed food trucks include Cousins Maine Lobster and Philly Factory serving up delicious bites, with more to come as we get closer to the event. The fun continues with a live concert by The Flannel Junkies from 7–10 PM. Drinks will be available for purchase as we keep the celebration going all evening.
Whether you're here for the cocktails, the competition, or just the connection — Mixd & Mingle is where the flavor meets the fun.
Why it matters: Proceeds from this event support scholarships for local high school students and help deliver valuable insights and opportunities to our business community through ONYX programming.
