About Sip Idaho

Sip Idaho produces Idaho’s only all-spirits liquor tasting events, and brings them to the public!

Every July, during Idaho Spirits Month, we gather the best distilleries from Idaho and across the globe, to come to the Boise area and and represent their brands, showing you all their greatest products!

New in 2023, we have expanded and are offering event locations in Northern Idaho in the Spring, and Eastern Idaho in the Fall!

Join us and other fellow liquor enthusiasts for a night of tasting, fun merchandise, swag, live music, and just having a blast with the minds and geniuses behind your favorite local spirits.

Things you should know!

It's a public event, can I bring my kids?

Unfortunately, no kids are allowed. Not even babies. Here in Idaho, we take liquor laws very seriously and nobody under 21 will be given entry, so please be prepared to show your i.d.

Let’s be honest, this is your chance for a date night out without the kiddos. Get a babysitter and enjoy a fun time out in the great state of Idaho!

The hotel has plenty of parking available for our event guests. Feel free to park in the front -or- back of the hotel.

Please drink responsibly! Ride-sharing and taxis are widely available in town. If you are questioning whether or not you should drive, make the wiser decision and get a cab.

The hotel is also offering our event guests a special block of rooms at a discounted price, so get a room and enjoy our Sip + Stay package!

Unfortunately, no refunds are available. Tickets are transferable, however! So if for some reason you’ve purchased a ticket and can not make it, tickets also make great birthday gifts!

Appetizers will be available inside the event venue and are included in your ticket cost. The hotel is catering the event to help us all stay in tip-top shape throughout the evening.

Yes! Sip + Stay! The hotels are blocking off a series of discounted rooms for our guests and vendors if you wish to stay the night.

For our Boise Event: The Riverside Hotel has a limited number of rooms available to our guests at the discounted rate of $193 per night Friday-Sunday, July 7th-9th, 2023. (The going rate is currently $222+.) You will need to reserve your room by calling the Riverside Hotel at (208) 343-1871 and ask for the “Sip Idaho” discount. There are a limited number of discounted rooms available, and the room block closes on June 8th, 2023, so we encourage you to reserve your hotel room right away, before the discounted rooms are gone.

For Sip Idaho North: The Red Lion Hotel Templin’s on the River has a limited number of rooms available to our vendors at the discounted rate of $149 for standard rooms, $169 for River View rooms, or $189 for suites, per night, Friday-Sunday, May 19th-21st, 2023. You will need to reserve your room by calling the Red Lion Hotel Templin’s on the River at (208) 773-1611 and ask for the “Sip Idaho – Sip & Stay Package” discount. There are a limited number of discounted rooms available, and the room block closes on May 5, 2023, so once you have confirmed your booth space with our team, we encourage you to reserve your hotel room right away, before the discounted rooms are gone.

Have a great time, make a date night out of it, and enjoy a nice brunch in the morning!

Yes. Tickets are per person only. So, as much as you refer to your partner as your “other half”, you are two complete humans according to us. You get to buy two complete tickets. See you there! Cheers!!
