For venues
Take part in Freshers Cocktail Week
Freshers Cocktail Week brings students and locals into participating bars and clubs with one wristband for discounted cocktails across the edition dates. It’s a simple brief, a clear audience, and a week of festival energy in your city.
Discounted cocktails for wristband holders
To take part, we ask venues to offer discounted cocktails to wristband holders during the published Freshers edition dates. That offer is your headline serve for the week: listed with the city line-up, surfaced in festival marketing, and the reason guests walk through your door. When you’re ready, tell us about your venue and proposed offer — we’ll reply with next steps.
What you get
- Listing with the city’s participating venue line-up
- Inclusion in festival promotion (site + social where relevant)
- Guests already primed for discounted cocktails
- A simple brief: discounted serves for wristband holders

Host a festival moment (optional)
Want more spotlight? Host a one-off Freshers night — tasting, takeover, or late session. Optional, not required. You’re in charge of the night; we’ll help shape it so it sits cleanly in the programme. Email us when you have an idea.
