Jägermeister is a proud supporter of nightlife and the artists, creatives and bartenders who have worked tirelessly to support it. At the start of the pandemic, Jägermeister knew the negative impact it would have on these communities. As a result, Jägermeister launched its Save The Night program which has included various charity initiatives to raise money for those whose passion, skill and hard work fuel and inspire the nightlife economy. For more information on the Save the Night initiative, visit save-the-night.com.

All proceeds from the event will help raise funds and awareness for The Safe Spaces Community Partner LGBTQA+ centers and safe spaces as they start to reopen physically. The Community Partners who will be helping build out The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative Safe Spaces designation process across the country are the Borderland Rainbow Center in El Paso, Texas, Just Us in Nashville, Tennessee, The Magic City Acceptance Center in Birmingham, Alabama, The Gulf Coast Equality Council, Gulfport/Biloxi Mississippi The Utah Pride Center in Salt Lake City and the Kansas City Center for Inclusion.

The Stonewall Inn Gives Back Initiative Safe Spaces will identify and designate entertainment venues, food and beverage locations, stores, businesses, and other public venues, as safe spaces for LGBTQA+ members of the community. The standards and certification process will be designed by the community in some of the most challenging areas in the country to be LGBTQA+ and by some of the most marginalized individuals in the LGBTQA+ community.

About Jägermeister

Introduced over 80 years ago, Jägermeister, German for “Master Hunter,” is one of the world’s most successful liqueurs and available in over 150 countries. The iconic taste of Jägermeister is not left to chance but is due to decades of experience, a safely guarded secret recipe consisting of 56 natural herbs, blossoms, roots and fruits including star anise, cardamom, cinnamon and ginger roots, and 383 quality checks. The botanical ingredients are extracted in their raw, unprocessed form through a gentle, weeks-long process of cold maceration to create Jägermeister’s base. The base, housed in more than 400 oak casks, then “breathes” for one full year, which is key to creating the complex and balanced flavor of Jägermeister’s legendary taste profile. Jägermeister is 35% Alc./Vol. and imported exclusively by Mast-Jägermeister US, White Plains, NY. Visit www.jagermeister.com and follow @JagermeisterUSA on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. DRINK RESPONSIBLY.
