Bartenders: booking cocktail masterclasses for groups
How cocktail bartenders can let groups book cocktail masterclasses online: one place per group or per seat, group size, venue, ingredients and team events.
5 min read
Hen parties, birthdays and team events want a cocktail masterclass on a set date, and they ask by message at all hours. Put your masterclasses on a booking page: individuals book a seat in a public class, groups book a private class in one go, and you know the numbers in time to buy fruit, spirits and ice.
Public classes and private groups
On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description shown on your public page, and each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.
| Service | Example slot | Places | Example price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cocktail masterclass, public | 2 h | 12 | €45 |
| Private masterclass, up to 12 guests | 2 h | 1 | €480 |
| Private masterclass at your venue | 2 h 30 | 1 | €600 |
| Alcohol-free cocktail class | 1 h 30 | 12 | €30 |
Durations, places and prices are examples: set your own. Public classes take one place per guest; private classes take one booking for the whole group.
Group size and venue in the note
The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email and appears in the organiser's calendar file. Ask for:
- the number of guests and the occasion;
- the venue, if you come to them, with access and a water point;
- allergies and alcohol-free guests;
- any theme or favourite spirits.
Say in the description the minimum age, according to the rules that apply to you.
Avoiding clashes
Slots of different services can overlap on Book. If a public class and a private class share the same evening, both could be booked. Keep public classes on set nights and private classes on others.
Team events
Companies can book a private class at your venue or theirs. Book doesn't take payments, so say in the description how you invoice companies.
Weekly classes
Slots repeat each week on the weekdays you choose until an end date, so a Thursday public class takes minutes to set up for the season.
Changes
Organisers can't move or cancel online: they contact you, and rescheduling works across services. Book doesn't email clients about changes, sends no reminders and doesn't sell tickets or vouchers. Your bookings sync with Google, iPhone or Mac calendars. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
