BevNET Live LA 2026: Early Registration Savings End Friday, Oct. 23

BNL LA 2026

Early registration for BevNET Live closes next Friday, Oct. 23. Beverage founders, retailers and investors will meet December 6-8 in L.A., and anyone who registers before the deadline saves $100 per ticket.

For nearly two decades, BevNET Live has become the event for candid, specific lessons from the people who have built or supported founder-led beverage businesses, so attendees head home with ideas they can put to work right away.

It’s also where many of the industry’s partnerships get their start. Founders arrive looking for distribution, buyers come to scout what’s next for their shelves, and investors search for their next brand to back. Sessions cover the topics shaping those deals, from growth and retail to capital and operations.

Among the speakers already confirmed for December:

  • Christian Patino Webb, CEO, Olipop
  • Kheri Tillman, CMO, Primo Brands
  • Joe Wiggetman, Chief Customer Officer, Primo Brands
  • Helen Kurtz, CMO, The Wine Group
  • Andy Sauer, CEO, Garage Beer & Roxberry
  • Brian Tate, Founder and CEO, Oats Overnight
  • Seth Green, Co-Founder, Hellbent Cocktails
  • PJ Loughran, Co-Founder, Hellbent Cocktails
  • Matthew Senreich, Co-Founder, Hellbent Cocktails
  • Nika Levinson, Senior Category Manager, Beverages, Thrive Market
  • Amber Bylund, SVP of Sales Strategy, Siddhi Capital
  • Kim Perell, CEO, Juni
  • Louie Catizone, Co-Founder, Phony Negroni
  • Brad Woodgate, Founder & CEO, Joyburst
  • Kevin O’Brien, Managing Director, Food & Beverage, CriticalPoint

Beyond the main stage, attendees can book 1:1 meetings with buyers and investors, watch emerging brands compete in the New Beverage Showdown, get up to speed at Beverage School for early-stage brands, and try new products at sampling stations around the event.

With the event less than two months away, hundreds of founders, retailers, distributors, investors and suppliers have already registered, with more signing up each week. They include teams from Whole Foods Market, nutpods, Drink LMNT, Spec’s, Bragg, LifeAid, FITAID, Rishi Tea & Botanicals, Saint James Iced Tea, Crafthouse Cocktails, Mission Craft Cocktails, Bucked Up and many more.

Registration also unlocks the BevNET Live hotel room block near the venue, which typically sells out.
