What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

We hosted a craft beverage sampling event last month and were honestly blown away by the turnout. The activation brought in customers we'd never seen before, and many ended up browsing our record collection for hours. It felt like a natural fit for our community vibe, and we're already booking our next event.

The Vinyl Basement

Venue Partner

Hosting a snack sampling activation was perfect for our space because people naturally stay longer here anyway. The brand provided fantastic materials, our guests loved the interactive element, and we saw a 23% bump in beverage sales that night. It's a win-win when brands understand their audience and choose the right venue.

The Quad Board Game Lounge

Venue Partner

The energy drink brand sampling we facilitated really energized our regular customers—pun intended. What impressed me most was how the activation team handled everything professionally, and it gave us legitimate reasons to reach out to our email list and drive weekday traffic we typically struggle with.
