"At Variety - the Children's Charity, we believe all Tassie kids deserve the chance to be just that - kids," he said.

"We hope to raise more than $15,000, which we're on track to do thanks to our fantastic sponsors."

Lat year, Variety helped more than 1,200 vulnerable children across Tasmania.

The fundraiser will showcase gin cocktails from some of Tasmania's finest distillers.

Darby-Norris Distillery from Scottsdale, and Three Cuts Gin by Turner Stillhouse, from the West Tamar Valley, are set to represent the North of the state at the event, while McHenry Distillery from the Tasman Peninsula will make up the Southern contingent.

"We love talking about, and allowing people to taste our Three Cuts Gin in such a beautiful setting," he said.

"It's even better knowing we're supporting Variety's work helping local kids."

Darby-Norris Distillery Co-founder Jeff Darby said Tasmanian gin distilleries had been doing it tough through COVID-19 and hoped the event would increase industry awareness.

Entertainment will be provided by the Australian Army Band Tasmania, and canapes will be supplied by Country Club Tasmania. The night will conclude with an auction hosted by Roberts Real Estate with a host of items to be won. For tickets visit www.stickytickets.com.au.
