What Is Harvest Haus?
Western Canada’s Largest Oktoberfest, blended with a beer festival.
Why Participate?
The details of Harvest Haus can not be explained within a short elevator pitch. Please reach out to Tyson Villenueve (tyson@socialconcierge.com) for more details.
How Does it Work?
Harvest Haus works on a different format than any other Feaster event. Once a brand signs up to be a beverage partner, the event team runs the entire ‘back bar’ and ordering process for the booth. The only thing the brand must do is show up to pour and talk about their product. Each brand will sell through many kegs as the amount of product consumed at this event is immense.
Each 10’x10’ space must be staffed by 2-people, without exception.
What Does it Cost?
There is no early-bird pricing for this event. Each invited brewery will have two wee ks from the time of being sent their invitation to register. If they do not register within their ‘window’, the invitation will be revoked and offered to the next brewery on the list.
All registered booths must either supply their own tent or rent one (for a nominal fee) from the VCBW tent supplier. Exhibitors are responsible for their own tables, linens or anything they want to have at their booth. Power is available via the show supplier.

WE BUY YOUR BEER
Each exhibitor is able to showcase up to two different SKUs (Kegs) at their booth. If a product isn’t available in a keg, talk to us! We will see what we can do!
VCBW’s beverage manager will guarantee a minimum order a certain amount of product from the brewery via a ‘Doc 60’. Any unopened kegs, in excess of the guaranteed order, will be returned to exhibitors at the end of the event.
VCBW will pay for all tapped kegs!
