The Capital City Cocktail Competition

Get ready to raise your glass at the Capital City Cocktail Competition, Columbia’s premier mixology showdown where creativity, flavor, and flair take center stage. Hosted by Bubblee Mixologist, this electrifying event invites the community to celebrate the art of cocktail crafting while supporting local talent and charitable efforts.

Set on the vibrant Palmetto Patio in the heart of downtown, the competition brings together eight of Columbia’s top mixologists for an unforgettable afternoon of head-to-head battles. These talented bartenders will shake, stir, and pour their way through three intense rounds, all competing for the title of Capital City’s Top Mixologist.

But this event is more than just cocktails—it’s a celebration of Columbia’s hospitality industry, small businesses, and the spirit of community. In partnership with a local nonprofit, the competition shines a spotlight on organizations doing meaningful work in the Midlands. Guests will enjoy not only exceptional drinks, but also the chance to give back and support a worthy cause.
