Step into the world of Courvoisier Dînatoires — chic cocktail hours celebrating culture and connection at Spelhouse Homecoming and AfroTech this fall
ATLANTA and HOUSTON, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Courvoisier®, is bringing its signature style to Atlanta and Houston this fall with two, one-night-only, “Bring Your Own Courvoisier” (BYOCV) Dînatoires. Forget traditional dinner parties: these are vibrant gatherings where you can sip, socialize, and bring your own unique energy to the celebration. Each event honors Courvoisier’s rich French heritage while embracing the ultimate pre-game ritual – good vibes.
Courvoisier invites you to raise a glass to celebration at exclusive BYOCV Dînatoires this fall.
BYOCV Dînatoires are dynamic experiences that blend good company, culinary artistry, delicious Courvoisier cocktails and undeniable energy. BYOCV is all about tapping into that electric feeling of getting ready for an unforgettable night ahead with friends. Courvoisier brings this fresh approach to celebration to two cultural epicenters—Spelhouse Homecoming in Atlanta and AfroTech in Houston—where tradition, innovation, and community converge.
Spelhouse Homecoming isn’t just a reunion; it is a cornerstone of Atlanta’s cultural calendar. Each year, thousands of alumni and tastemakers gather to celebrate legacy, excellence, and connection. On October 16th from 6–9pm at El Malo, Courvoisier will host an exclusive happy hour to kick off the legendary weekend. Partnering with influential alumni, the event will unite the city’s cultural leaders for a standing-room-only evening hosted by Theo Alexander IV, CEO and Co-Founder of The Social Club, with music curated by DJ Flocka.
AfroTech in Houston is the world’s largest tech conference for Black professionals, bringing together the brightest minds in culture, innovation, and entrepreneurship. It is also a city known for its thriving cognac culture, making it an ideal setting for Courvoisier to merge networking with celebration. On October 29th from 6–9pm at Cocody, Courvoisier will host a cocktail-hour Dînatoire, led by Houston native J Mulan and featuring DJ Brilliant, inviting together cultural leaders and innovators for an evening that will bring the BYOCV philosophy to life.
“When we developed this concept, we wanted to create the kind of gathering where everyone feels at home bringing their own bottle of Courvoisier and sharing it with friends,” said Sonia Lessuck Pirolo, Category Marketing Director for Cognacs and Champagnes at Campari America. “These BYOCV Dînatoires really capture what we’re all about – bringing people together in a way that feels personal yet elevated. The city of Atlanta and Houston are so special to us. These cultural hubs naturally invite that BYOCV spirit, embodying our mission to spark joy, conversation, and good times at every gathering.”
Each Dînatoire will feature signature Courvoisier cocktails that highlight the cognac’s distinctive flavor profile, paired with thoughtfully selected “light bites” that complement its notes of vanilla, dried fruit, and subtle floral touches. Capture the night in the BYOCV video booth, participate in a discovery wall to design your own personal moodboard, and uncover how Courvoisier transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary memories, and learn how to bring the Courvoisier magic to your own home. After all, the most memorable gatherings always begin when you Bring Your Own Courvoisier.
