What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

This was our first time doing a product sampling event and we were nervous, but it honestly strengthened our community vibe. The brand brought energy, our runners got genuine value from trying new gear, and we earned commission that helped offset our event costs—win-win-win.

The activation we hosted felt seamless from start to finish—the brand came prepared, the samples were relevant to our audience, and it created a real buzz around race day. Our members are still talking about it, and we've already booked another brand for next quarter.

We partnered with a sports nutrition brand for our spring race and were thrilled with how engaged our runners were at the sampling station. It brought in an additional revenue stream we didn't expect, and our participants appreciated the chance to discover products that actually matter to their fitness journey.
