B. POSTING FAQs

+ CAN I POST ON FACEBOOK OR TIKTOK?

NO – Instagram only.

+ CAN I POST MULTIPLE TIMES?

YES, but you can only be granted 1 entry in the draw for the first valid video entry. Full name, mobile, and Instagram handle will be matched to guarantee only one entry per physical person.

+ DO I NEED TO FEATURE MYSELF IN THE VIDEO?

It is recommended but not mandatory, as long as the drink and recipe meet all the perfect serve criteria. We encourage you to present yourself with your personality for a more authentic video.

+ CAN I USE SOMEONE ELSE’S APEROL RECIPE VIDEO OR MY SUBMISSION FROM LAST YEAR?

NO, it must be your original video, recorded after the competition’s start date, 2nd Oct 2023.

C. ENTERING AND WINNING FAQs

+ CAN I ENTER IF I AM NOT A BARTENDER?

To be eligible to enter, a person needs to be holding a valid RSA and, at the time of the submission of the video, the person needs to be working (this includes full-time, part-time, casual employment) for an establishment with a liquor license in Australia (on-premise bar, restaurant, pub, hotel, etc.). This criterion extends to employees of catering companies who serve alcohol and mixed drinks.

+ WHAT IF I HAVE AN RSA AND I WORK IN AN ON-PREMISE LICENSED ESTABLISHMENT BUT I AM NOT A FULL-TIME BARTENDER?

We encourage all food and beverage hospitality professionals to enter. Although we address the competition to “bartenders”, we’d love to see waiters, sommeliers, restaurant managers, glassies, bar backs, and even kitchen staff enter this competition.

+ YOUR ENTRY IS NOT APPLICABLE IF:

You do not currently live and work in Australia and in an Australian licensed venue at the time of posting the video. The winners need to be living in AU at the time of the draw and at the time of the prize. If you are not 25 and older (due to ABAC laws).

+ I AM AUSTRALIAN, I HAVE AN RSA, I AM A BARTENDER BY TRADE BUT I AM CURRENTLY NOT EMPLOYED.

If an employment premise cannot be nominated and moreover confirmed at the point of the draw, the entry will be deemed ineligible.
