FAQ’S

The site fee covers everything to attend the event, your takings from the event are yours.

There may be permits you may need to apply for with relevant councils that may include processing fees.

The general process is:

  1. Submit a stall EOI for the festival(s) you’re interested in
  2. If approved, you’ll be sent an invite link to register
  3. Complete the registration form (which includes paying a deposit for your stall)
  4. You’re now registered and will be included in stall update emails for the festival. This may allow you to choose your preferred stall location on site (only if you register early enough).

We leave it up to you on how to handle payments at your stall space.

So you can take cash payments and/ or use point of sales systems.

Remember, there are no commissions at BeerFest festivals – you keep your own takings.

See above these FAQ’s for a list of what is and isn’t included with the stall fee.

Stalls choose their locations based on how early the register on a first come first served basis. So registering early will ensure you’ve got the widest range of possible locations.

We have numerous sponsorship options available, typically a stall is included in sponsorship making this an attractive option for some. Please contact us for more information.

We also host master class sessions at the festivals. These are 20-40min sessions that might be a subject you’d like to talk about, e.g., “chocolate & beer pairings” or “canning beer – pros & cons.”
