Prices for your Birmingham & the West Midlands booking

One cocktail bartender costs £270 for three hours, then £67.50 per additional hour. A 1.5m bar with one bartender starts at £595 for three hours. Stocked packages start at £29 per guest for four hours, minimum 50 guests. Your postcode determines the separately quoted travel.

Access and floor space

For exhibition halls and controlled-access venues, include build and breakdown slots, supplier instructions and any paperwork requirements in the brief before confirming the equipment. Straight bars need their ordered width by 1.5m working depth, horseshoes 2.5m depth and the full island 5.5m by 3.5m. Leave guest circulation outside the working footprint.
