Registrations are now open for the Leukaemia Foundation’s quirky U.G.L.Y Bartender of the Year competition, challenging bartenders to demonstrate their Understanding, Generous, Likeable You and raise funds to beat blood cancer at the bar.

There’s a great range of incentive prizes up for grabs for those who put their heart into this fun competition. Every $80 raised will fund one night of accommodation for a regional or rural family relocating to the city for urgent and life-saving blood cancer treatment.

First prize in every state is a $3,000 Flight Centre gift card for the winning bartender and the choice of either a Hoshizaki Ice Machine or Lancer Beverage Systems products and services to the value of $7,500 for their venue!

A staggering $10 million has been raised over the past nine years thanks to some very creative and competitive bartenders.

So get involved, get your venue on board and create some fantastic fundraisers your patrons will love. We’ll send you a free U.G.L.Y merchandise kit and heaps of awesome ideas and tips to get you started.
