We celebrate Mr. Jack’s Birthday all September long, every year. That’s because we’re none too sure when in the month he was born. But there’s no doubting where he was born – Lynchburg, Tennessee.
Jack Daniel’s celebrations this year will culminate in a unique party at the stunning setting of The Devil’s Arse in Castleton, set in the Peak District, which is the site of the largest cave entrance in the UK. Being that all of Jack’s famous Whiskey is crafted using the iron-free Cave Spring water that flows at our distillery in Lynchburg, Tennessee, celebrating Jack’s Birthday in a cave seems like the right thing to do.
And so Saturday October 6th sees one of the annual highlights of the music calendar as Mr. Jack’s Birthday literally goes underground to party with The Vaccines, Mystery Jets and Tribes in addition to a few surprises. Entry to this show is extremely limited, but we’re offering one lucky Gigwise reader and three friends the chance to be there!
In addition to a fantastic line-up in this unique venue, the lucky winners will be served at a bar inspired by Mr. Jack’s own White Rabbit Saloon in Lynchburg, Tennessee, which served his world-famous whiskey in his hometown before the county went dry. Prior to the show there will be a Southern style barbecue at Castleton’s two pubs, The Castle Inn and The Bull’s Head and, after the show, we will be heading back to Sheffield for an aftershow celebration at the city’s renowned Leadmill, one of the most famous gig venues in the UK. And of course, we’ll get you there and back, and put you up for the night.
