Brand Success Stories

See what brands achieved at Tailgate

Hosting a sports nutrition brand at our venue during game day was perfect timing and execution. The sampling generated genuine buzz among our crowd, and we even had several customers ask us to stock the product afterward. This kind of activation creates a better experience for our guests and opens up new revenue opportunities for us.

Copper Oak Sports Lounge

Brand Partner

We partnered with a local beverage brand for a weekend sampling event and were blown away by the turnout. The activation brought in 40% more customers than a typical Saturday, and our regulars appreciated discovering new products they ended up purchasing. It was a win-win that strengthened our relationship with the community.

Working with a snack company for our farmers market activation was seamless from start to finish. Customers were engaged and excited to sample, which actually led to increased foot traffic throughout our entire venue for the rest of the day. The platform made it so easy to coordinate logistics and reach brands that aligned with our values.
