Testimonials


"Part of the attraction with our festival is that it does not follow the norm - people like to explore the site, find new places, get lost even - that is why it was important to have plenty of outdoor bars within reach. We sat down with Peppermint and talked through the logistics, they were very flexible and sensitive to our requirements."
Josie da Bank, Organiser, Bestival

"Just want to say what a great job Steve and the team did with this outdoor bar setup. It was a pleasure to work with such a professional and hard working team. The overall event was a great success for Red Bull and created excellent awareness of Red Bull Cola throughout the carnival. Having fun loving bar staff, serving premium drinks helped make this happen. I look forward to working with you all in the near future."
Ben Kendall - Red Bull Marketing

"Peppermint Bars provide a first class and stylish service to any event they are involved in. They are reliable, secure and very efficient when it comes to planning and setting up of the bar space. All staff are professional and very friendly from management right down to serving staff, and it's reassuring to know that a first class service is provided to the people that attend our events"
Greg from ClubClass. (Speaking after Radio 1's Big Weekend after-show party)

Case Studies


Bestival, Isle of Wight


Happy 5th Birthday Bestival! Sold out once again in record time - attracting some 35,000 revellers. The event comprised 15 outdoor bars, including the Bollywood Bar & Black Dahlia cocktail bars, Brother's Cider Bar, the Bestivale Pub, the Havana Club outdoor bar Brand Experience, the cockney Knees Up, Come Dancing, two mass-serve outdoor bars (using 44,000 pint tankers) as well as further themed bars and fast can stations. Yes, the rain came - but that failed to dampen the spirits of everyone there, our staff included.

FIELD DAY


Sharing the same venue as the Lovebox Weekender - Field Day returned to Victoria Park in East London at the beginning of August. The organiser employed us to run all 8 outdoor bars including a prestigious backstage VIP cocktail bar. Cold draught lager and 'pokey' Mojito's were the order of the day for the 20,000 guests.

NOTTINGHILL CARNIVAL


Red Bull approached us to showcase their Red Bull Cola drink at London's Notting Hill Carnival on the August Bank Holiday weekend. The event was a huge success - "Just want to say what a great job Steve and the team did with this outdoor bars setup. It was a pleasure to work with such a professional and hard working team. The overall event was a great success for Red Bull and created excellent awareness of Red Bull Cola throughout the carnival. Having fun loving bar staff, serving premium drinks helped make this happen. I look forward to working with you all in the near future." (Ben Kendall - Red Bull Marketing)

GLADE FESTIVAL


After an extremely busy month in May and June to include the Radio 1 after-party, Rockness, Artemis Transat and Mark Ronson at the Old Billingsgate to name but a few - the Glade festival returned this year with some glorious weather. A more intimate affair this year and a huge success and definitely re-kindled the Glade vibe with some great music, excellent weather and of course a lot of beer! - as well as cocktails on the Sancho Panza Bar and real ale courtesy of Otter Ale - keeping Glade crowd happy throughout the weekend.

LOVEBOX


Now in its 4th year, we returned to Victoria Park to run the bars for Lovebox - London's coolest day festival in the summer calendar. 12 outdoor bars including a huge 40 metre main stage bar, several cocktail bars and Cuervo frozen margaritas were just some of the outdoor bars available to thirsty London festival-goers throughout the weekend.

CAMP BESTIVAL


It was the inaugural year for Camp Bestival (Bestival's Sister event) at Lulworth Castle in Dorset. Set in an idyllic setting in the Dorset countryside the event's first year was a huge success and cemented its future for years to come. We provided a colourful mix of cocktail bars, satellite outdoor bars and mass-service outdoor bars throughout the weekend.

SECRET GARDEN PARTY


Definitely this summer's talking point. The Secret Garden Party has grown a loyal, eclectic and fun following in its five year history and this year the event sold out well before they opened the gates. Cocktails are always a popular with this crowd and we didn't disappoint - especially our head mixologist's Glen's "secret" Bloody Mary recipe - it was the talking point of the weekend and certainly helped with the hangovers! As well as the main outdoor bars we also built the Aspalls Cyder Barn and provided a rum bar on a pirate ship in the middle of the lake (which was only accessible via canoe-water-taxi) and was consequently exploded into a flurry of fireworks on Saturday night (after we vacated it we may add) and watched as 200 flamed-lanterns ascended into the night sky - it was quite a show. Next year's antics are already being planned but we're sworn to secrecy!

RADIO 1'S BIG WEEKEND - The After-Show Party



'The biggest line up in ClubClass history' greeted Peppermint, who provided the bar services at the highly anticipated after party for Radio 1's Big Weekend in Maidstone, Kent. The event was broadcast live from the largest TV studio in the UK and welcomed a celebrity spotted crowd who partied into the small hours. Peppermint designed and ran a fully stocked main bar with the intensity and professionalism it is famous for, ensuring a perfect service to a crowd buzzing with anticipation for each amazing act. This was complimented by the outdoor bar VIP area, with it's chilled out vibes and funky seating areas providing a break from the madness.
