I plan to include alcohol during my session, is there anything I should be thinking about?

Yes. If you plan to include alcohol during your session, we encourage you to please keep your safety, and that of your guests, front of mind.

Safe sessions do not involve providing alcohol to a guest:

• Who is under the legal drinking age
• Who will be driving or operating any type of vehicle or mechanical equipment
• Who looks or acts inebriated or who you know is intending to drive afterward
• Who has informed you that they are ill, have a drinking problem, or do not want to participate
• Who is participating in a session where any remaining portion of the activities involves physical activity (like yoga, swimming, hiking, biking) or operating machinery or would otherwise be hazardous if intoxicated

We want to remind you that in most jurisdictions, the sale of alcohol to, or consumption of alcohol by, those under the minimum drinking age is punishable by fines and criminal penalties.

Do I need licenses if I serve alcohol to my guests at my home, at a private venue, or outdoors?

To sell alcohol to your guests, you generally either need a license or you need to hire a caterer licensed to sell alcohol. Note that, for a variety of reasons, licenses are not generally available to sell alcohol at a private residence. Selling alcohol includes situations where:

• You sell alcohol to your guest directly (e.g. charging a guest for a glass of wine that you serve yourself)
• You sell alcohol to your guest indirectly (e.g. including a charge for the wine you serve to your guest in your session price)

Here are some additional things to think about before hosting a session involving alcohol:

• You may be required to obtain a license if you organize a session which you advertise as being BYO (bring-your-own) alcohol, depending on the jurisdiction and your specific session.
• Some jurisdictions have restrictions on the hours during which you may serve alcohol.
