INTRODUCING PICØLO DRINKS FESTIVAL

We all know looks can be deceiving.
That good things come in small packages.
Well, now little is lots. Small is big. Low’s the new high.
So it’s time to say yes to no. Go heavy on light.
Sip a little. Taste a little. Try a little.
Just live a little.
Welcome to Picolo – where less is more.


Picolo Drinks Festival is Australia’s first major low and no alcohol drinks event. We are here to shine a light on the very best of the category, where flavour is foremost and innovation and quality is second to none.

Picolo spotlights the new wave of drinks producers.  Artisans, makers, distillers, brewers, movers and makers – all working towards a common goal; to create delicious drinks that just happen to have no, or low, alcohol. 

This event is not about ‘sobriety’, it’s about offering another choice. About experiencing genuinely great times with a focus on all the good things; surprise, delight and entertain (with less booze)

We know we don’t need to tell you this but with the opening on non-alcoholic bars, retail outlets, increase of products available, the market is growing rapidly however, there is currently no major non-alcoholic event/festival.

Until now.

At REVEL, we have always believed in championing the very best products in a category, celebrating quality over quantity and we do this by creating a singularly focused festival. Pinot Palooza and MOULD – A Cheese Festival  (to name but two) have lead the way and we believe now is the time to do the same with low and no alcohol drinks.

I'M IN! SIGN ME UP!

OUR CORE AUDIENCE

REVEL’s core demographic is 60% women and 60% under 35. In the under 35 demographic, the percentage of women increases to close to 65%.

This is the key target market and area for growth in this sector. To add to that, this is also an audience that will grow with us as the rise of the category encourages  lasting change in Australia’s drinking culture. In short, we already have the target market – now let’s introduce them to you.

Our secondary audience is men in the 35 – 45yo category which is seeing greatly increased engagement with especially zero / low alcohol beer.

””Low, mid and non-alcohol now account for more than 27 per cent of our beer sales.”

Amanda SellersAsahi’s group chief financial officer
