This WorldPride season, Stoli Vodka is paying homage to the humble martini during ‘Martini Mayhem’ at The Conservatory Bar by Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park. From 20 February to 7 March, this colour-filled takeover is championing the fabulousness and diversity of the martini all month long.
In celebration of the martini this pride season, Miss Martini aka. Ana Page has crafted a menu of five tasty tipples inspired by pride icons themselves; Kylie Minogue, George Michael, Donna Summer, Shirley Bassey and Madonna. Guests can expect martinis using Stoli’s range of premium, salted karamel, cucumber and vanil vodka. Ranging from fresh flavours like mint, cucumber and elderflower to form the ‘Supernova’ to a sultry salted caramel espresso martini, ‘I Feel Love’, along with a classic martini – the ‘Lucky Star’ with grapefruit bitters and a 23-karat gold leaf olive.
Martini Mayhem doesn’t stop there! An Oyster Shucking station will be on-site every Friday to Sunday, offering fresh oysters with fun vodka-fusions including vodka granita in pride colours and martini mignonettes. Additionally, Sydneysiders can treat themselves to a drink from the martini maven menu for only $12 for Stoli’s Martini Mayhem in The Conservatory Bar happy hour every weekday between 5pm-7pm, before heading out to their WorldPride events in the heart of the city.
“I’m so excited for the chance to work with Stoli this WorldPride season, not only is it something I hold close to my heart, but I knew that with Stoli’s range of flavours, we would be able to create something unique and eye-catching together. I hope guests get a chance to try these martinis, they’re fun, they’re classic but with a twist and they’re proof martinis don’t have to be uniform to be delicious” – says Ana Page, Martini expert.
“We’re so looking forward to seeing Martini Mayhem come to life in our iconic The Conservatory Bar. We can’t wait to see our guests, and the public enjoy this special event. Together with Stoli Vodka, we’re really paying homage to the Con Bar’s place in Sydney’s cultural and creative scene during WorldPride.” – says Krister Svensson, General Manager, Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park.
Closing out the WorldPride celebrations, Sydney artist and DJ, Chase Zera will hit the decks for a one-night-only performance on Saturday 4 March. With a set composed of all your favourite pride anthems and dancers costumed up to the hilt, this night is guaranteed to be nothing short of flamboyant. Guests are invited to stay at Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park during Martini Mayhem, thanks to their WorldPride package that includes one hour of cocktails and buffet breakfast for two, for $649 per two guests, per night.
“Teaming up with Sheraton Grand Sydney Hyde Park for WorldPride is going to be huge. We are so excited to join in on the celebrations and showcase the many faces of the vodka martini. I think you should expect a lot of colour, boldness and fun, but also the diversity that a martini brings. The chance to show off Stoli’s newest flavour range during this event is exciting and I encourage everyone to come down and indulge in a drink or two this pride season!” – Tanya Mah, Head of Marketing, Stoli Vodka.
