This collaboration highlighted Canned Wine Co.’s aim to enhance cultural experiences while promoting sustainability through premium, perfectly portioned canned wines.

The partnership underscored the importance of investing and celebrating in the arts, which are vital for cultural enrichment and economic stimulation.

It’s a huge pleasure for Canned Wine Co. to partner with UK Theatre and be Official Drinks Partner of this year’s awards. We absolutely loved being a part of the special day celebrating the outstanding achievements and creative excellence from theatres across the country. The room was bursting with celebrations and our Sparkling Chardonnay went down a treat!

ELEVATING EVENTS

At the UK Theatre Awards, Canned Wine Co. ensured a seamless service experience. Guests enjoyed a choice of sparkling or white wine on entry, with the fizz going down especially well – it was a big night of celebrations, after all. The cans allowed for quick service and freshly poured drinks that didn’t lose their sparkle.

Canned Wine Co.’s sustainable approach was well-aligned with the values of many theatre professionals. By choosing aluminium cans, which are infinitely recyclable and have a lower carbon footprint than glass, the brand reduced environmental impact while delivering high-quality wines. The thoughtful presentation and innovative packaging reflected a modern sensibility that resonated with the environmentally aware and art-loving crowd.

This collaboration not only elevated the UK Theatre Awards but also showcased how innovative, responsible solutions can blend seamlessly into high-profile events, enhancing the experience while caring for the planet.
