Brewing Up Success: Essential Event Equipment for Breweries and Wineries

Breweries and wineries are all about creating memorable experiences. Beyond the delicious drinks you produce, hosting successful events is a fantastic way to connect with your customers, build brand loyalty, and boost sales.

Here's a look at some essential event equipment that will ensure your brewery or winery gatherings are a hit, rain or shine.

Whether it is an event or every day service, your customers need a place to sit and mingle. Here are two popular choices for breweries and wineries:

• Plastic Folding Tables: Affordable, lightweight, and easy to set up, plastic folding tables are a workhorse for any event. They are especially great if you are taking your product on the road for a beer or wine festival. They come in various sizes to accommodate different needs, from intimate tastings to large gatherings. Opt for sturdy tables with a weight capacity that suits the expected use.

• Plastic Folding Chairs: Both plastic and resin folding chairs are popular picks. Plastic chairs are the most budget-friendly option and are solid choices if your brewery or winery hosts a lot of pop tastings/events. 

• Resin Folding Chairs: If you are a brewery or winery hosting weddings, resin folding chairs are a must-have.

These chairs are constructed from a weather-resistant material making them perfect for outdoor ceremonies. Resin chairs are also typically more comfortable than plastic, with contoured backs. While slightly pricier than plastic, their durability and aesthetic appeal make them a worthwhile investment for breweries and wineries that host frequent events.

Extending the Season: Patio Heaters

Don't let cooler weather limit your event options.

Patio heaters provide warmth and ambiance, allowing you to host outdoor events throughout the year. Freestanding propane heaters are a popular choice, offering portability and directional heat. Remember to choose heaters with safety features like tip-over shut-off valves.

While these are some key equipment elements, there's more to creating a successful event experience. Consider these additional elements:

• Linens: Elevate the look of your tables with branded tablecloths or simple linen cloths.

• Canopy Tents: Provide shade from the sun or protection from light rain with a pop-up canopy tent.

When selecting event equipment, consider the size and type of events you typically host. Think about portability, ease of setup and storage, and durability. Investing in quality equipment that will last for years is a smart business decision.

By having the right event equipment on hand, breweries and wineries can ensure their events are comfortable, inviting, and memorable.

So raise a glass to successful gatherings and start planning your next event with these essentials in mind!
