Location

Tales of the Cocktail Foundation calls New Orleans, Louisiana, home. Since 2007, we have grown from an annual walking tour of historic New Orleans cocktail bars to the world’s premier cocktail festival and global nonprofit. We live in an ever-changing world where remote work has become the norm for many organizations, including ours. We embrace our home of New Orleans, but now our employees live in cities around the world.
