Organizers expect to draw fans, followers and industry reps from across the music, festival, sports and spirits industries. Country music star Lindsay Ell and Blues sensation Shawn James headline the musical talent while\u00a0ESPN\u2019s Wright Thompson rounds-out its sports interest.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Bourbon heavyweights include Black Bourbon Society founder Samara Davis, Bourbon Hall of Famer Peggy Noe Stevens as well as Minnick, among others, whose big personalities bring libation\u00a0knowledge to the Degy World platform. Degy World created the virtual expo space that customized all of the Expo\u2019s grand halls, spaces and stages.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Master Taster Stevens&#8217; seminar surrounds the concept of bourbon entertaining and she\u2019ll share some of her trade secrets of hosting bourbon events in your home. \u201cIn our virtual world today this is such a unique way to celebrate bourbon and Repeal Day,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Given the limited number being offered, tickets are expected to sell quickly since going up for sale last week. The Expo\u2019s most expensive tickets, at $149, sold out in two days.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Every ticket holder will build their own avatar and receive a bottle of Jack Daniel\u2019s through the event\u2019s online retailer,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=PadG0DlACu6d0qCrp5ugL3pvpS_UqBA9zF6TDQ4p75uz8ssXXIQ4sKsLQZC-1L8IsbIMJTwSxXraOJS0OBMwXfl6YAMqt_2517A6JJQDtemKEOi_wLYF9IZnGyAck4O0KqUz7K3UKjEN0duVO7z6Jw5upfq5nojFC8HCva0kKQf9Zewp28LaQ3q3ouXTFb7pJlMByyWRRSIdHeVwT7HUkW8fnu2rBq05U3KbJXQkEuo=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">CraftShack<\/a>, in states allowing alcohol shipments.

Throughout my career, I\u2019ve tried to give beverage fans interesting experiences and content,\u201d says Minnick, winner of the 2019 John Barleycorn Spirits Personality of the Year. \u201cThere&#8217;s simply nothing like Repeal Day Expo in Degy World. With your own avatar, you\u2019re essentially playing a video game, yet engaging with people and drinking whiskey. It\u2019s the gathering the spirits industry is yearning for during this celebrated holiday.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Minnick is former editor of Bourbon+\u00a0Magazine, a longtime judge of the San Francisco World Spirits Competition, and co-founder of Bourbon and Beyond, the 3-day music festival.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Dec. 5, 1933 marks the day alcohol Prohibition was repealed in America. For this auspicious day, many gather to raise a glass toasting the end of Prohibition. Since gatherings are a thing of the past this year, the Expo quenches the spirits industry\u2019s thirst for an annual Repeal Day party.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">&#8220;We are thrilled to be teaming up with Fred Minnick, his amazing team, and his throngs of dedicated followers around the world.\u00a0The event concept conceived for Degy World is exciting and groundbreaking for the spirits world.\u00a0We know that the Repeal Day Expo ticket holders, exhibitors and presenters will have a unique, immersive avatar experience unlike any they ever imagined,\u201d said\u00a0Ari Nisman, founder of Degy World.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cWe expect to keep Degy World\u2019s virtual bar stocked following the excitement and energy of Dec. 5,\u201d said Nisman.<\/p>\n<p
