Yes! We would love to host a cocktail class for you, your friends, or your coworkers. Fill out our form to request a cocktail class. Please let us know in the notes that you are specifically interested in hosting a cocktail class.
Cocktail classes are suggested for small groups for the best experience. If you have a larger group, you would be split into two rotating groups during the class. We recommend no more than 20 participants for the best experience. If you are interested in a hands-on experience of making and drinking one cocktail with a take-home recipe, the cost would be $22.50/person. If you are interested in learning two cocktails the price would be $45/person.
P.S. Every Wednesday night at 7 p.m., resident cocktail enthusiast Kat Binkley hosts a hands-on cocktail class featuring simple yet delicious drinks that anyone can easily make at home, after a little direction and lesson to send you confidently on your way. Learn more and purchase tickets online.

To reserve a full venue buyout of Killjoy on a Friday or Saturday evening, the budget encompasses about $10,000 when accounting for venue rental, staffing, beverage minimum spend, gratuity, and taxes. If this is in line with your expectations, we'd love to have you at Killjoy for a site visit and chat with the general manager. If your budget does not permit that level of investment, groups of 30 or less can be accommodated in Killjoy's larger of two private lounge areas with rental rates beginning at $150 for a two-hour event with just a $500 minimum beverage spend.
