Get ready for Price Crash, but bigger and better than ever! Join our host as we turn your average Tuesday into a thrilling night of rising and falling drinks prices.

We're challenging you to grab the best deal of the night. Think you're up to it?

Starting  at 16:00 until close every Tuesday at Institute Bar,  we'll have loads of fun in store including great tunes and prizes to be won. 

What’s the deal? Imagine a bar that turns into a live stock market – that’s right, drink prices rise and fall all night based on their popularity! We call it the Drink Exchange. One minute your favourite cocktail might be a steal, the next it could be a splurge. It’s all about timing and strategy, just like the real stock exchange.

Why you’ll love it:

  • Dynamic Pricing: Watch the screens to see which drinks are crashing and which are soaring. Will you grab a bargain or splurge on a high-demand drink?
  • Interactive Fun: The thrill of the market makes every order an adventure. Rush to the bar when prices drop and feel the excitement of a true stock market crash!
  • Perfect for Groups: Whether you’re celebrating, catching up, or just looking for a fun night out, Price Crash is the ideal setting for a memorable evening with friends.

Don't want to miss out? Don't worry, Price Crash will be back every Tuesday evening at Institute Bar during term time so you'll have your chance to swing by, enjoy some cheap cocktails (if you play your cards right) and potentially win big!

So, gather your crew and head to Institute this Tuesday. Don’t miss out on the chance to experience the highs and lows of The Drink Exchange. It’s not just a night out – it’s an event you’ll be talking about all week!
