FAQs
WHAT IS THE BOOGIE BAR?
The boogie bar is a 1970s horse trailer restored to be a full service mobile bar for an elevated bartending experience at your next event. As a full service bar she is equipped with a commercial size kegerator to serve your favorite draft beverages, a controlled temperature mini fridge to store wine or other beverages at the perfect temperature, and is wired for easy electricity hook up. We are registered to do business in the State of Michigan and fully insured for general liability and liquor liability.
What type of events do you service?
The Boogie Bar is open to servicing all types of events such as weddings, showers, bachelor/bachelorette parties, tailgates, birthdays, corporate events, and more.
How big is the trailer?
The Boogie Bar is the same size as a small SUV. It measures just under 11 ft long, 7 ft wide, and just under 8 ft tall. She will need a flat level surface. If the service area is inside please check with your venue to confirm there is an entrance with proper clearance.
Who provides the alcohol?
The host will provide the alcohol, your package will provide the rest! Michigan does not allow mobile bars to acquire a liquor license, so we cannot accept any payment for alcohol. We will work together to create the shopping list for your perfect bar menu. You can coordinate the purchase yourself or with your coordinator, caterer, venue, or suggested vender in the area. Our clients find this to be more cost efficient as there is no minimum purchase for an alcohol package with our services.
What is required for power?
If your venue can provide an accessible standard 120v outlet we will provide an extension cord. If there is no access to the outlet at your venue, we can include a quiet generator with your package.
What is the hourly minimum?
Each package includes up to 4 hours of event service time, 1-1.5 hours of set up, and 1 hour for take down. Additional time can be purchased with your package.
Where does The Boogie Bar travel?
Our packages include travel distance of 25 miles from 48017. Additional mileage can be purchased.
What about Michigan weather?
The Boogie Bar does not provide shelter. You will be responsible for providing a tent if the weather permits and your venue is outside. If your event is cancelled due to weather, no refunds will be provided, but we will work with you to reschedule for a future date.
What type of kegs can you serve?
Our trailer is equipped to serve perfectly cold draft beverages with our commercial grade kegerator. It can hold one full size keg, one pony keg, one quarte slim keg, two 5 The gallon commercial kegs, three ball lock kegs, or two pin lock kegs. Every package includes a 5 lb CO2 tank to serve the draft beverage at the perfect pressure.
