What happens when you pull more than 120 of New South Wales’ best bartenders and bar operators together for a big celebration of the bar world, at one of the industry’s favourite bars? You get the Boothby Best Bars NSW Awards, which we held at Earl’s Juke Joint in Newtown earlier this week.

A big thank you to everyone who came down to the second annual Boothby Best Bars NSW Awards — we had a cracking top 50 to roll through, and everyone got behind the list in a big way (you can see the full list here). Congratulations to the 50, the major award winners, and a big thank you to the sponsors and the team at Earl’s Juke Joint, for making it all possible. We’ll be back next year!

Get a look at all the action from the night in the galleries below — thank you to Christopher Pearce for the photos. And if you’re based in Victoria, keep an eye on your inboxes — nominations for the second annual Boothby Best Bars VIC Awards open very soon.
