What We Do...

SipUp creates experiences that bring people together through culture, education, entertainment, and philanthropy. From celebrating diverse creators and sharing their stories to supporting nonprofit causes and exploring new beverages, we believe every gathering is an opportunity to imbibe discovery, connection, and collaboration.

Beverage Discovery

Welcoming experiences highlighting the artistry, cultural traditions, and stories of underrepresented beverage makers, with alcohol-free options included.

Rooted in Community

Born in Oakland and inspired by the diversity of the Bay Area, SipUp believes meaningful connections begin when people come together with curiosity and open minds.

Whether we're sharing a story, discovering a new beverage, celebrating a cultural tradition, or supporting a local cause, our experiences are designed to create connections that extend beyond the event itself.
