Underground Spirits Cocktail High Tea in The Gin Garden at Floriade 2026

This spring, Underground Spirits invites you to step into The Underground Gin Garden: Hypersaturation! Feast—our boldest, brightest and most immersive Floriade experience yet.

Take your seat at the centre of the spectacle, where oversized botanicals, electric neon, glittering disco balls and cocktails collide in a joyful celebration of flavour, colour and imagination. Every corner has been designed to delight the senses, flooding the garden with vibrant energy and creating an experience that's impossible to simply walk past.

At the heart of it all is our much-loved Cocktail High Tea. Gather your favourite people around the table and indulge in handcrafted cocktails served in teapots, spectacular spring treats and the unmistakable spectacle that has become a signature of The Underground Gin Garden. This is Floriade turned all the way up!

To complete the feast, we've partnered with Canberra favourite L'épi Artisan Bakery, bringing handcrafted French pastries and savoury delicacies into our maximalist botanical world. Every bite has been thoughtfully paired to complement our cocktails and celebrate the abundance of spring.

Bring your friends. Bring your camera. Bring your appetite. Come ready to sip, share and immerse yourself in the most colourful, flavour-filled corner of Floriade 2026.

The Experience Everyone Comes For! Take your seat at the brightest table in Floriade.

Our Cocktail High Tea is where spring turns up the volume. Surrounded by oversized botanicals, vibrant blooms, glittering disco balls and a riot of colour, you'll gather around a table overflowing with handcrafted cocktails and irresistible sweet and savoury creations from L'épi Artisan Bakery.

Forget everything you know about High Tea. Here, cocktails are poured from beautiful teapots into delightfully mismatched vintage teacups, every sip becoming part of the theatre. Tiered stands arrive high with handcrafted pastries, buttery treats and gourmet quiches, while every table becomes its own colourful celebration of flavour, friendship and spring.

Designed to be shared, photographed and remembered, Cocktail High Tea is an invitation to laugh a little louder, linger a little longer and embrace the joyful excess of Hypersaturation! Feast.
