2022 Events
Whiskey & Dust Events...wtf do we do here?
First and foremost, upfront and in your face...we’re a WHISKEY BAR! And not some swill-drinkin’ frat boy moonshine bullshit, but Actual Quality Whiskey. Real whiskey from real bottles poured by real bartenders. We pride ourselves on serving a wide selection of mid to high-end whiskies from around the world, all sampled and approved by our highly educated whiskey-loving members. Unless of course you’re a douche, then we have a lovely bottle of Screwball set aside just for you. Our beautifully decoupaged retro pin-up bar and lounge is open most of the time before, during and after the Burn (It’s the first thing to go up and the last to come down). So come by and have yourself an actual quality drink on the Playa, it’s our pleasure to serve you.
Our second passion...Yoga. Because what goes better with whiskey than yoga? Hungover Downward Dog is the order of the day most mornings at Whiskey & Dust. Or just watch from the bar while sipping your Hair of the Dog, it’s your choice. We offer professional yoga instructors most mornings from 10:30 -11:30 am. Bring your mat, comfy clothes and water. Classes accessible to all levels.
Yes we do all kinds of other shit too…Other Whiskey & Dust Classic Camp Events…
Monday Night WHISKY TASTING! AKA the Colorado Party...7:00pm - ? This is the Big One folks, the party they come from far and wide to attend...Bring your favorite bottle of fire water and a cup.

You worked hard to build this city, now it’s time to have a good stiff drink.
