Aperitivo Hour Pop-Up With Old Lightning

The Resort at Pelican Hill, a stunning 504-acre resort in Newport Beach, California, will launch a series of Aperitivo Hour(s) pop-ups throughout the month of March, in collaboration with three of the nation’s most renowned bars — Old Lightning Bar, Peppi’s Cellar and The NoMad Bar. Guest bartenders will take over the resort’s Coliseum Pool & Grill each Friday and Saturday throughout March, with the first Aperitivo Hour(s) pop-up taking place on Friday, March 6 and Saturday, March 7, from 5:00 – 9:00pm. Guests will enjoy a variety of cocktails prepared by the bars’ talented bartenders for $12 each.

The Resort at Pelican Hill is taking the tradition of Aperitivo culture to new heights. Centuries ago, Italians sought for an Aperitivo – a small gathering with wine and mixed drinks paired with light bites before dinner – after a long day to wind down. Today, the tradition has been modernized as a time in the late afternoon for low proof cocktails with friends before dinner or a night out. The resort is infusing this experience and pop-up concept into a month-long event.

Friday, March 6 – Saturday March 7: Los Angeles’ Old Lightning bar is known for featuring the world’s greatest collection of rare spirits. Old Lightning’s menu features over 90 hand-crafted cocktails and houses an extensive collection of over 1,200 rare, vintage or limited-release spirits by owners Pablo Moix and Steve Livigni.
