Mutt Cup 2026 - April 16

About This Event

Save the date to join us Thursday, April 16 at The Biltwell Event Center.

Mutt Cup is the premier fundraising event hosted by FACE Low-Cost Animal Clinic!

The Mutt Cup is an annual craft cocktail competition featuring several of Indy's best bartenders. Each year, top mixologists create cocktails to be judged by a panel of local experts and event attendees. They compete for the highly-coveted Judge's and People's Choice Awards.

This annual event includes a spectacular silent auction, Whiskey Fetch, spirits provided by Hotel Tango and 8th Day Distillery, casual party atmosphere, cocktail sampling, substantial appetizers, and more.

Our goal is to raise $80,000 for FACE programs!

Expected Attire

Dressy casual is just fine. It's fun to show-out, but don't get too worried about the details. Mutt Cup is a laid-back affair. 

Food and Drinks

You will get to sample each competing cocktail (zero-proof guests will receive one full-sized cocktail), and we'll also have "heavy appetizers" at the beginning of the event. Additional food will be served later in the evening.
