DRY RUN 2024
From A to B with low abv - Bristol's first-ever sober pub run
What a day!
This January ravers and runners united for the first-ever charity 'Dry Run' in Bristol.
It's a fresh new take on the pub crawl in partnership with Arbor Ales, where runners head from venue to venue following their own route, collecting points and sampling an alcohol-free or low abv drink instead of a boozey bev.
All fitness levels got involved and the entry proceeds were donated to the local homeless charity Caring in Bristol.
We raised £1,278.90
A HUGE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT CONTRIBUTED!
ABOUT DRY RUN
How it works:
1. Sign up to give your charity donation and claim your tote goody bag.
2. Meet at Lost Horizon for briefing, warm-up and to assemble a crew.
3. Create your routes and try to get to as many of the independent venues as possible within the given time frame.
4. At each venue you’ll sample a low abv or non-alcoholic drink and
check in on social with a fun task.
5. Once you've visited as many of the venues as you can, run back to Lost Horizon before the cut-off time for prizes and a mini rave!
We believe that raving is important and we want to promote low and non-alc bevs within the city for a healthier and more sustainable approach to partying as well as raising money for a great cause.
