Case Studies

The Great Yorkshire Show

We are proud to annually serve at the Great Yorkshire Show, one of the largest agricultural shows in the UK with more than 130,000 visitors each year. Across the 8 units we have over the site we aim to provide something for everyone, whether it be sipping on the premium gin selection offered on the President’s Lawn at our vintage bars or trying the many Black Sheep Ales and Draughts at the infamous Black Sheep BA-AR! We also have our Pimm’s, Cocktail and Craft Ale bar offering an abundance of refreshing and creative alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages.

CarFest

In 2019 we teamed up with Timothy Taylors and the Landlord brand to deliver The Barfest Arms, a unique pop-up pub delivering a wide selection of fine ales. We were proud to serve as the only UK event bar company with Cask Mark Accreditation, in order to ensure all our customers were served the very best of real ales. Our pub was established at both CarFest North and CarFest South and saw all customers including the main man himself Chris Evans partaking in a pint or two. We also joined Chris Evans at his RunFestRun event with a similarly well-received operation.

Tour de France

In 2014 Yorkshire welcomed the Tour de France Grand Départ, and we were proud to operate the bar facilities at the Harrogate Fan Park. Across the 4 days of the event the Fan Park received 100,000 visitors, and it was fantastic to be a part of such an established and well-known sporting event when it made its debut in the UK. We have also been fortunate to since continue our services and operations at the annual Tour de Yorkshire, which has now become a firm fixture in the international cycling calendar.

Bristol International Balloon Fiesta

The Bristol International Balloon Fiesta hosts the largest meeting of hot air balloons in Europe, with over 150 balloons from around the world gathering at the event. With 5 bars across the grounds we enjoy working closely with Richmond Event Management as well as event partners including Thatchers, Carlsberg and Tribute, in order to deliver high quality products and services to the global customer base.

Slam Dunk Festival

For the past 3 years we have operated as the bar consultants at Slam Dunk Festival, the number one pop-punk, rock and alternative music festival in the UK. Operating across sites in both London and Leeds, the festival and its bars have seen around 25,000 visitors a day. Each year we have operated numerous bars and now successfully train and manage over 600 staff in order to successfully meet the festival’s needs.

Elton John

When the Rocketman himself visited Westmorland County Showground, Premier Event Bars was proud to run all of the bar operations at his concert. Tens of thousands of fans travelled to see Elton John in the Lake District and were met with a wide variety of drink offerings to suit all tastes.

Tall Ships Race

Premier Event Bars has proudly served twice at the infamous Tall Ships Race both when it last visited Hartlepool in 2010 and Greenock in 2011. Each time our numerous bars saw hundreds of thousands of customers enjoying the event, and we were able to offer over 200 bar staff positions to the local communities.
