Party Help

I'm throwing a party for around 100-200 people in 2 weeks and was wondering how much alcohol I should get. I know for a fact many people will be on other drugs and therefore not drinking but what is a rough estimate of the minimum-maximum amount of alcohol a crowd like this could consume.

(just vodka and beer)

I was thinking of getting about 10 bottles and 100 cans of beer.

EDIT: There is a cover fee for the party and DJ's and lights will be present. It is an underground warehouse rave that I'm throwing!

 

I honestly think your should get a lot more than that.. because if one person has a beer no doubt in my mind they will want another lol..
But then again you don't know if everyone will drink :/

 

Shouldn't everybody be bringing their own drinks? That'd get really expensive paying for that many people to drink.

 

Yeah I posted an edit about that.

I just don't want to buy too much alcohol when I know many people will be rolling and/or tripping.

 

If you're throwing a party with about 100 - 200 people, and you plan on getting only 100 beers, there'll be like 100 people left wondering where's the beer at.
I suggest you buy 2 or 3 kegs for 100 - 200 people, and around 10 - 20 bottles should be good. And whenever the kegs are done, just refill them and you're ready to go.

 

Most people can easily drink 12 cans of beer to themselves at a party so i'd suggest making it BYO. Or as suggested above maybe a few large kegs.

Sounds like it's going to be a sweet party though.

 

Yeah sounds like I'm going to have to invest in some kegs haha If anyone is interested in attending hmu I'm in the Central Florida region!

 

unless you have the means i suggest you stick to one product, light beer. at that ratio id say 1 case for ever 4 people. plus 1 case for ever 10. so if 40 people came you would have 14 cases of light beer. which is 9 beers for each person. over 4 1/2 hours that is one beer ever half hour.

 

Also heir a licenses bar tender to sever alcohol. They would likely do it for $300 , and charge $1 or $2 per beer producing profit.

 

3 or 4 kegs, but use one at a time. cuz you may have like 1 left over, instead of 2 half empty ones.. When I got a keg, there were like 10-15 people around for about 4 hours or so, then me and 3 other people finished off the rest afterwords. A keg is probably like 160 beers if you count for the foam and bottom of the glass shit people don't drink.

 

3 kegs honestly should be enough maybe 4 if the party is 5 hours+

 

set up.a bar and charge you wont be able to afford that shizzle and sell bottled water because when your buzzing dehydration is a bitch, btw can you post a pic of your rig? cheers

 

if you're on a budget id go with 3-4 kegs of natty [ shitty but cheap for kegs], and a whole lot of burnettes [ make some jungle juice with it] around here its 14-15$ a handle

 

Going for a bare minimum of 20 handles and hopefully 1 or 2 kegs. I think I'll have this covered hopefully!

 

sounds like an awesome party, 100 beers should cover it if people bring their own. rave on!!:laugh:

 

Yeah buy all the cheap beer you can and tell everyone else to bring their own beer.

 

100 beers would be good for like 5 people if they're in cans or like 7 if they're in bottles.
