Join Campari and raise a Negroni for charity between the 4th and 10th of June for 2018’s #NegroniWeek #Negroni #Campari

Campari, Italy’s red apéritif, presents Negroni Week 2018, championing the Negroni cocktail – a mix of Campari, gin and sweet red vermouth.

The week-long international charity initiative will take place from the 4th – 10th June 2018 in bars and restaurants around the world to raise money for charitable causes. Over seven days, thousands of venues will celebrate the Negroni cocktail and its key ingredient: Campari, spreading the message that there is’No Negroni Without Campari’, over one shared charitable goal.

Negroni Week 2018 is set to be the biggest yet.  First launching in the UK in 2017, last year’s Negroni Week welcomed the involvement of 7,770 venues in 60 countries to raise $1.5 million for charitable causes since the launch.
