How it works

You bring the brief We'll bring it together

From the first conversation to the final pack-down, Barmotion manages the hospitality so you don't have to.

Whether you're planning an exhibition, conference, corporate event, product launch or brand activation, we'll work with you to understand what you need and how the hospitality needs to perform.

Tell us what you know. We'll take it from there.

01
First things first

Tell us what you know

You don't need to have everything figured out. Event confirmed and everything mapped out? Great. Still working through the details? That's fine too.

Tell us what you know — the event, date, venue, expected guest numbers, timings and what you're hoping to achieve — and we'll help you work through the hospitality from there.

We'll ask the right questions about the audience, available space, service periods, venue requirements, branding and anything else we need to understand.

From brief to plan

We build the plan

What should we serve — and what will actually work? Once we understand the event, we'll recommend a hospitality setup that makes sense.

That could be one Coffee Bar, several bars across a large event, a Blender Bike or a combination of services planned around different parts of your event.

We also consider expected guest numbers, service times, available space, equipment, staffing and service capacity to make sure the setup can handle what the event requires.

A good idea still needs to work when the event gets busy.


03
Your brand

Make it yours

Your brand can become part of the hospitality. Sometimes all that's needed is a logo on a really good cup of Coffee. Sometimes we take it much further.

Branding can include cups, bars, menus, signage, packaging, Coffee stencils, aprons, uniforms, Blender Bike wheels and more. We can also explore brand colours, bespoke menu names, signature drinks and custom hospitality ideas.

Once the direction is agreed, we'll provide artwork templates, specifications and deadlines so everything can be approved and produced in time.

If you're planning several events, let us know. Where suitable, we can retain certain branded materials for future use — helping you make more of the branding you've already produced.

Behind the scenes

We sort out the details

This is where a lot of our work happens. Equipment is allocated. Stock and ingredients are planned. Staff are scheduled. Branding goes into production. Service requirements are checked. Event logistics are confirmed.

Where needed, we'll coordinate directly with your venue, event organiser, agency, production team or stand builder.

There can be a lot happening behind one Barmotion bar.
The important part is that you don't have to manage all of it.

Working together

Working with
your event team

Sometimes we're working directly with you. Sometimes we're one part of a much bigger event team.

Where it makes sense, we'll communicate directly with the relevant people, helping to keep the details moving without adding unnecessary back and forth for you.

We know events. We know there are plenty of moving parts. Our job is to make the hospitality one less thing for you to worry about.
