Start Planning Your Event Today

Event organisers, caterers, and venues require reliable beer glass supply for temporary bars and hospitality setups. You need glassware that arrives clean, polished, and ready for immediate service. Guests expect a properly presented drink. Expo Hire supplies beer glasses for these requirements.

Standard and Speciality Beer Glasses

Expo Hire supplies essential beer glassware for many event types. Nonic pint glasses hold 568ml, the standard measure for beer and cider in the UK. Their distinctive bulge below the rim helps them stack secure and reduces the chance of breakages during busy service periods. Many events choose these for their durability and familiar design.

Half-pint glasses hold 284ml. These suit smaller pours, tasting flights, or events where guests prefer a smaller serve. You might use them for welcome drinks or alongside food pairings.

Stemmed craft beer glasses hold 330ml or 400ml, suitable for specialist ales, lagers, and ciders. Their stemmed design helps maintain drink temperature and enhances the aromatic experience for specific craft beverages. Consider these for premium bars, corporate receptions, or themed tasting events.

Ready for Service: Clean and Certified Glassware

Expo Hire understands the need for operational efficiency at your event. All our beer glasses arrive washed, polished, and secure packed in reusable transit crates. This means you unpack them direct onto your bar or service area, without requiring additional preparation. Each crate protects the glasses during transport and helps with organised storage on site.

Many of our beer glasses feature CE or UKCA markings. This certification confirms that the glasses hold the specified volume, a legal requirement for serving alcohol in licensed premises in the UK. This gives you confidence that your bar operates compliant with weights and measures regulations.

Glass Hire Delivery and Collection

Expo Hire handles beer glass orders for delivery or collection at its distribution centre. We deliver direct to your event site, whether it is a marquee, hotel, or exhibition hall. Our team collects the used glasses after your event, which means you do not need to wash them. We ask that you empty and re-crate them for collection.

Plan quantities considering guest numbers and individual drink consumption. For a typical event, you might calculate 2-3 glasses per person to account for breakages, lost glasses, and different drink choices throughout the event. You maintain continuous service without running short.

No security deposit

Expo Hire does not charge a security deposit. A free minor damage waiver covers minor damage and loss. Excessive or negligent damage is charged at 10 times the hire price. Full details in our terms and conditions.
