FIC FAQ

September 30, 2024

Can I sell alcohol during my event or serve my guests even if I purchase the Certificate of Alcohol Insurance?

The FIC does not have a liquor license to allow the sale of alcohol. Alcohol can be served by a bartending service but not sold during events. Cash bars, the sale of drink tickets, and self-service bars are strictly prohibited. If you plan to serve (not sell) alcohol, alcohol insurance must be purchased through Hospitality Services Group (additional fees apply). Drink tickets can be sold in advance prior to the event, not on the premises.
