Why is Background Music for Bars & Breweries So Important?

Bars and breweries are where people go to relax and unwind. Playing the right music can help set the tone for your bar and keep your customers entertained while they enjoy their drinks. According to research, playing slower-tempo music increases customer spending—so if you are experiencing a lull, especially during the afternoon or early evening, you may want to go for a more relaxing vibe. Moreover, research has shown that music can make beer taste better.

Other benefits of playing music in your brewery or bar include:

  • Entertainment
  • Create a lively atmosphere
  • Mask noise
  • Create a brand and identity for your establishment
  • Enhance mood and well-being
  • Offer a conversation topic
