# How much should I be budgeting for coffee at my event?

[Back](https://freshlybrewed.coffeeoncue.com.au/faqs)

It’s often a bit of a guessing game when it comes to budgeting for each catering component of an event. There are many factors to take into consideration, including:

- event duration
- number of attendees
- expectations from attendees and clients

\*Events landing on a weekend incur a 15% surcharge; public holidays incur a 25% surcharge

\*\*Note that branded panels are a one-off cost and can be used for multi-day events and repeat/recurring events

\*\*\*Note that leftover branded cups can be used for repeat/recurring events
