Rum Shakers is officially back and inviting all bartenders in DC, Atlanta, Chicago and San Diego to hit the dance floor for the new Dance Battle edition. Bartenders and bar staff are constantly moving back and forth behind the bar showing off their own choreography daily. So in 2018, Tales of the Cocktail Foundation and BACARDÍ Rum teamed up to create Rum Shakers, an inclusive advocacy program that empowers industry to show how they shake it beyond the bar. Rum Shakers get to undergo professional dance training for four weeks to ultimately perform a choreographed routine in front of their family, friends, peers and fans. After electrifying seasons in Miami and Los Angeles, Rum Shakers has quickly become one of the most exciting programs around showcasing the magic of dance and gaining an activated fan base globally.
Rum Shakers Bartender Dance Competition wants to take that movement and bring it to a dance studio near you! This 4-week dance program and competition is all about giving bartenders motivation to be active through dance while celebrating personal expression and community.
