Sailor Jerry Presents: Follow the Flash in Scotland

After the success of Jerry’s Open House, we’re heading back to Scotland this March to work with some mighty talented locals and inject a spray of colour, plus some Sailor Jerry attitude for a balls-to-the-walls Castle Party - turrets n’ all.

What the hell is a Sailor Jerry Castle Party, you ask? 

It’s an epic party. In a castle. Merging the best new bands, live art, food trucks and of course, the best cocktails in town. This is the ultimate house party, done Sailor Jerry style.

Spots are limited, keep reading to see how you can win yours…

If you’re coming, your chariot* will pick you up from Edinburgh, Dundee or Glasgow.

Special guest TBA – watch this space!
