ICE AS A SERVICE

Nobody thinks about ice. Until there’s not a cube left in the building. Then it’s the only thing on your mind. We think about ice obsessively. And not just in cubes. How it tastes. How it looks. How it melts. How it sounds when it clinks. If it goes in the glass, it needs to be perfect. Get a quote and we’ll tell you what we can do with ice.

JETCHILL

For certain occasions, it’s worth going the extra mile and popping open some ‘wow’ factor. THIRST Jetchill does just that. We won’t spoil the magic by revealing how the trick is done. OK, well tell you. Using dry ice, THIRST’s first-of-its kind Jetchill gives drinks a sub-zero atmosphere releasing wisps of harmless ‘cold smoke’. It’s not actual smoke, but it is cold.

Mobile Bar Hire FAQs

How much does mobile bar hire cost?

Mobile bar hire is priced per event — it depends on guest numbers, location, drinks package and duration. Share your date and headcount and we’ll send a tailored, all-inclusive quote.

What areas do you cover?

We operate from Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban, and travel nationally for the right occasion. We’ve even taken South African bar culture international.

What’s included in a mobile bar package?

The bar itself, trained bartenders, glassware, ice, mixers and a curated drinks menu. Fully-hosted means you host the guests — we handle the bar.

How far in advance should I book?

The sooner the better — peak dates (December and wedding season) fill fast. Reach out early to lock in your date.

Can you create a custom or branded bar?

Yes. From custom bar structures to fully branded activations, we build bars around your theme, venue and brand.
