What Venues Like You Are Saying

Real feedback from venues partnering with Recess

This has genuinely transformed how we think about venue partnerships. A fitness supplement brand activated during one of our weekend events and the demographic alignment was perfect—their products resonated with our crowd, attendance was strong, and we earned additional revenue while adding value for our patrons. Definitely want to do more activations moving forward.

Barton Springs Live Music Venue

Venue Partner

The activation we hosted completely exceeded our expectations. A snack brand sampled their products to our regulars, and not only did we see a spike in that day's sales, but the activation created a genuine buzz around the UT Austin student community. Our customers felt valued, and we loved being part of something that brought people together.

Rainy Street Coffee Roastery

Venue Partner

Working with this platform to host sampling events has brought so much energy to our venue. We had a beverage brand activate during lunch rush and it drove incredible foot traffic—customers were excited to try something new, and many ended up exploring other vendors in our hall. It's been a win-win for community engagement and our bottom line.
