New Mobile Bar owners watch this. If you are a new owner or potential new owner of a mobile bar this video is for you. I break down what licenses you might need and some workarounds for not owning a liquor license.

Please make an indent video about how to apply for the license by state

[@therustybartender]

I'm based in Australia so do you mean make a video about licensing state by state here or in U.S?

[@jerryyoung436]

The U.S please. New Mexico first ❤

Thinking on doing this.. but also to rent out the bar without the service. Have you ever only rented the bar out?

[@therustybartender]

No I've always had the bar staffed as well! It's a good idea though , good luck with your project.

[@hose_A]

@@therustybartender If you were to rent it out without staff? How would you contract it? Or would you never do that?

[@therustybartender]

@@hose_A probably do a set price but have terms and conditions like it gets returned in clean condition , and a fee to cover breakages ect if your hiring out glassware as well.

Hello! What is that accent - it sounds close to home (NI)😅 I’m actually thinking of starting a mobile bar business over here but I’m a little lost on where to start. These videos are great but I’m overflowing with questions

[@therustybartender]

Hello there ! Yes I'm originally from Belfast. Moved to Australia 13 years ago. Ask away mate?

[@moedelaney7062]

@@therustybartender do you know anything about the legalities of having something like that over here? I’m trying super hard to research but I feel like I’m being sent around in circles! Thanks so much for responding 😊

[@therustybartender]

@@moedelaney7062 well pretty much over there to sell alcohol you would need a catering licence but the technicality loophole still works. As long as your serving and not selling you dont need a licence. So if your doing an event get the customer to supply you with the alcohol. Then all your doing is serving it to their guests.

What licence is needed for “wet” bar. Located queensland

[@therustybartender]

It's going to depend on what your premises is? Is it a mobile bar or stationary? You will find too that if your going to do festivals and markets that even if you already have an existing licence you will needcto apply for separate temporary licences for each festival anyway.

What licence do you need if you are only doing pirvate party man?

[@therustybartender]

As long as your not selling the alcohol then only your bartending licence

[@andreamari8158]

What if you want to sell alcohol? thanks man!@@therustybartender

[@therustybartender]

@andreamari8158 you will definitely need a licence then so just check what your state law says you need
