Mobile Bar Dry-Hire in Austin
The Wildman Show brings a fully equipped dry-hire mobile bar to your event in Austin — you purchase the alcohol, we bring the retrofitted bar trailer or portable bar setup, TABC-certified bartenders, ice, cups, mixers, and garnishes. This model is standard in Texas because mobile bars cannot legally hold liquor licenses without a brick-and-mortar location, and it saves you from vendor markups. We'll consult with you on drink menus, curate specialty cocktails, and provide an alcohol calculator so you know exactly how much to buy for your Texas event.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dry-hire mobile bar?
A dry-hire mobile bar means we provide the bar setup, TABC-certified bartenders, and all supplies — but you purchase the alcohol separately at retail prices. This is the standard model in Texas because mobile bars cannot legally hold liquor licenses without a brick-and-mortar location. For your Austin event, you can return any unopened bottles after the event, so you only pay for what gets consumed.
What does The Wildman Show bring to my event?
We bring the retrofitted trailer or portable bar setup, ice, cups, straws, napkins, mixers, garnishes, and TABC-certified bartenders. We also consult with you on your drink menu, help curate specialty cocktails, and provide an alcohol calculator so you know exactly how much to purchase.
How much alcohol should I buy?
A general rule is 1–2 drinks per guest per hour. We provide a personalized alcohol calculator based on your Austin event's guest count, duration, and drink preferences — so you buy exactly the right amount and can return anything unopened.
Can the mobile bar be combined with DJ services?
Yes! Bundling mobile bar with DJ, karaoke, or foam party services is one of our most popular packages for Austin events. Contact us at (325) 204-6847 for bundle pricing and availability.
