Festival Pint Cups, Made in the UK From Just £0.33 Per Cup
Tired of dropping pints on the way back from the bar? Sick of disposable cups overflowing the bins by lunchtime? Stack-Cup builds the smartest festival pint cups on the planet (stackable, shatterproof, and proudly British). Every cup is moulded and printed at our Stockton-on-Tees factory, with a minimum order of just 50 and prices starting from £0.33 per unit.
Stackable Plastic Festival Cups That Carry Themselves
The original problem with festival drinks service is simple: people want a round, but their hands only hold two cups. Trays are wasteful, slow, and disappear into the crowd. Our patented spiral handle solves that in one clean engineering move. Slot the base of any cup into the handle of another, and suddenly one person can carry four or more pints back to their mates without a tray, without a spill, and without slowing the bar queue down.
That stacking mechanism is the reason our plastic festival cups are now used at major UK festivals, stadiums, racecourses, and corporate events. Quicker rounds, fewer drops, faster bar turnover.
Why Plastic Pint Cups Beat Glass and Single-Use Disposables
Glass at festivals is a non-starter (it shatters, it injures, it gets banned). Single-use disposables go straight to landfill and pile up costs across the weekend. Reusable plastic pint cups sit right in the middle: safe, washable, branded, and engineered to survive 500+ commercial dishwasher cycles.
Safe in any crowd
Polypropylene shatterproof construction, food-grade and BPA-free. Drop them, kick them, stand on them; they keep going. That is why venues choose Stack-Cup for high-energy environments where glass simply will not pass the licence inspection.
Smarter on cost over a season
At 50 cups your unit cost starts at around £1.75. Order at higher volumes and the per-unit price drops to as low as £0.33 (yes, you read that right). For any festival running multiple weekends, the economics flip against disposables fast.
100% Manufactured in the UK, Zero Imports
Most reusable cup suppliers in the UK are actually resellers shipping in stock from overseas factories. We are not. Every Stack-Cup is moulded, printed, and quality-checked at our facility in Stockton-on-Tees, County Durham. That means tighter quality control, shorter lead times, lower carbon miles, and a real human you can ring up if something goes sideways.
Our standard lead time on custom festival pint cups is just 10 working days from artwork approval. Express services are available if your event date moves on you (it happens).

Custom Branded Festival Pint Cups: Your Logo, Their Hands
Every cup we manufacture can be fully branded with your artwork. Sponsor logos, stage line-ups, charity partners, lager brands; we have printed all of them. We use In-Mould Labelling (IML), which fuses your design into the cup wall during moulding. The result is a print that does not peel, scratch, or fade, even after hundreds of wash cycles.
Print options that suit any budget
- Full-colour wrap (IML): photographic detail, gradients, sponsor logos, the lot.
- Single-colour print: punchy, clean, perfect for charity nights and tighter budgets.
- Multi-side artwork: separate front and back designs for double the brand impact.
Volume pricing that actually scales
Pricing kicks in at our 50-cup minimum order, then drops on a sliding scale (250, 500, 1,000, 5,000, 10,000+). Big orders unlock the £0.33 per cup tier. For a quick estimate, see the live pricing on our pint cup range or jump straight to custom printed pint cups for branding details.
Festival Pint Cups: Frequently Asked Questions
How do Stack-Cup festival pint cups actually stack?
+
Each cup features a patented spiral handle. To stack, you slot the base of one cup into the open handle of another. This creates a secure interlocking column that lets a single person carry four or more pints in one hand without spillage and without the need for a tray.
What is the minimum order for plastic festival cups?
+
Our minimum order is 50 cups. This is one of the lowest minimums in the UK reusable cup industry, which makes our cups accessible to small bars, weddings, club nights, charity events, and corporate launches as well as full-scale festivals.
Can I add my own branding to the festival pint cups?
+
Yes. Every plastic pint cup we make can be fully customised with your artwork. We use In-Mould Labelling (IML), which fuses your design directly into the cup wall. The print survives 500+ industrial washes without scratching, fading, or peeling. Both full-colour wraps and single-colour prints are available.
How quickly can you deliver custom festival pint cups?
+
Our standard lead time on fully custom orders is 10 working days from artwork approval. Express services are available for tighter event deadlines, and we manufacture and dispatch from our UK facility, so there are no overseas shipping delays.

We produce pint to line and pint to brim formats (568 ml legal pint with headspace, plus a brim-fill 625 ml version), half-pint, two-pint, wine cups, champagne flutes, hot drinks cups, and 16oz cocktail cups. All are stackable, all are UK manufactured.
