Welcome to Ticket Tuesdays, a weekly chance for you to score entry to some of the hottest shows in the Bay Area.

We reached the end of our Russian Standard Vodka "Toast to Ambition" mixology contest, where seven of the city's top bartenders competed to make the most deliciously inspired cocktail. You guys voted Erik Tennyson of the W Hotel's Upstairs Lounge and his drink "The Devil Goes to Moscow" as your favorite, and now we're celebrating.

This Thursday, August 9 from 6-8 pm, we're throwing a big congratulations to Erik, and we want you to come. Enjoy light appetizers, hot beats by DJ Cams, and signature Russian Standard Vodka cocktails including "The Devil Goes to Moscow"! You and a plus-one can win entry by signing up for our newsletter below. We'll contact the winner by email on how to get in. We can't wait to party with you!
