About Imbibe Live

Where drinks mean business

Imbibe Live is the most important two days for the UK on- and off-trade drinks industry. This is an interactive event for anyone who sources, buys or serves drinks, helping discovery of new brands and innovative tastes.

Since launching in 2010, it's the one and only event that focuses on the entire world of drinks. From wines, beers and spirits to soft drinks, RTD's, mixers, tea, coffee, no-and-low abv drinks, waters and other associated products. Our aim is to enhance the customer experience and increase profitability.

Always trend-shaping, it plays host to revolutionary seminars, rare tastings and new products. It’s where you will find the novelties and form the connections that will grow your business.

Imbibe Live is a B2B event and is restricted to people aged 18+ years only.

Decarbonising the events industry, together

At RX, we are serious about sustainability. We are founding members of the Net Zero Carbon Events pledge to make our company, our shows and the wider events industry net zero. We commit to being Net Zero by 2040 and to make a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.

In 2023 we will publish our pathway to net zero, setting out our reduction strategy with key milestones for all our shows. Given the complex nature of our supply chain and the emissions associated with a show, it is only by working together as an industry that we will be able to reduce our impact. We are building a company of net zero heroes to take action and ensure a sustainable future
