Here at Ace Bar Events we aim to support our clients in whatever way we can, our mobile bar hire service has seen a lot of interest as of late – interestingly enough not for their intended use (as a bar and point of sale) but rather as alternative exhibition stands. The uniquely branded mobile bar acts as a footfall hook at exhibitions and trade shows, drawing in large crowds due to the eye catching design and keeping them there with our flair bartenders or mixologists.
ODK UK, suppliers of top quality cocktail puree’s and cocktail syrups, were the latest to employ our bespoke LED mobile bar for the Northern Bar & Restaurant Show 2016 this week. As you can see from the below photo the mobile bar, as an alternative exhibition stand, really does stand out from the crowd and attract the eye – and the World Champion flair bartender in this instance did a great job of keeping people at the stand, returning to the stand and engaging with the brand ambassadors also in attendance.
This strategy of using bespoke branded mobile bar’s as alternative exhibition stands has proved very successful for a number of our clients so far, including ODK UK at the Northern Restaurant and Bar Show and ANSYS at the SPE Offshore European Conference 2015. Typically it is advised that you also opt for one of our highly talented flair bartenders or mixologists on the stand as well – although the mobile bar can act as a good draw, once they have entered your exhibition space it can be harder to keep hold of them for long enough to truly engage with the prospective customer. We have found the entertainment provided by our flair bartenders and the cocktails (which can also be branded to suit you) provided by our Mixologists help to retain prospective customers and put them in a more approachable state of mind – that could be something to do with the cocktails also!
If you are interested in hiring one of our mobile bar’s as an alternative exhibition stand, for any other suitable reason, or for our mixologists and flair bartender hire please feel free to get in contact.
