The Kraken invades key summer festivals

Festival season is just around the corner, and as any regular can attest there’s more to festivals than headliners and food vans. This summer festival-goers can expect some fun thanks to The Kraken Black Spiced Rum’s appearance.

If there’s one bar that has to make it on to the ‘must visit’ list, it’s The Kraken Freaky Tiki Bar, an immersive pop-up like no other. By day, visitors will be transported to a devilishly dark Polynesian realm on festival soil where they can sip on terrifyingly tempting rum cocktails and get their hands on lei prizes with hidden surprises along the way. When night falls, the space will come alive with DJ sets, tentacle-ridden fire pits, charcoal face painting and drumming rituals. Never mind the festival headliners, head to the Freaky Tiki Bar to awaken the Kraken…if you dare!

Guests can indulge their taste buds with The Kraken’s limited edition Summer Eclipse cocktail range, designed for festival-going rum fans who appreciate the darker things in life, and be hit with taste notes ranging from avocado through to black tea and cider.
