The International, Continental, Multi-Cultural, High End, Big Brands, New Brands, Flair, And Flavour, BCB London Bar Convention, Is Only In Its Second Year, But Is Already Making A Big Splash.
Next Year’s Convention Is May 10th – 11th 2027. Save The Date If You’re Moved By The Moment, Being In The Business And Qualifying For Entrance.
This Year, Monday May 11th – Tuesday May 12th 2026, Saw Plenty of Girl Power In The Rooms, In The House, And Around And About. Plus Education Exercises, Open Discussion, Inclusion And Innovation.
As Davide, Manager of Bar Fabric By ‘Equal Parts’ Said: “This Is A Great Place To Make Connections, See What’s New, See What Brands Are Doing. This Is A Good Occasion To Show You What We Are. You Can Feel It When You Come And Talk To Us.”
And He Was Not Wrong.

74% of The Population In The UK Is Actively Moderating.
They Want To Drink Less Alcohol. As An Industry We Really Need To Understand, What Does That Mean? How Do We Make Sure That We Give Our Guests What They Wanna’ Drink.
And Moderation Being The Leader, The Leading Part of This Movement, We Really Need To Make Sure That We Be Inclusive, We Have Options, And Choices For Everyone, Because In A Group of People There Will Always Be A Mindful Drinker, Always Be A Person Who Wants An Alcohol Free Option, Or Who Wants To Do What’s Called ‘Zebra-Striping’ (Alternate Between Alcohol And Non-Alcoholic Drink).
And So We Want To Make Sure We Are Really Providing True Hospitality Which Is Being Able To Look After Every Single Guest That Comes Into The Bar.
Never Judge A Book By It’s Cover. Things Aren’t Always What They Seem! Here’s Cami Doing Her Non-Alcoholic Thing For The March 2026 ‘Alcohol Free’ Awards (Despite What It May Look Like To Those ‘Not In The No’!).
