Why should I enter?

The alcohol-free category is the most exciting part of the drinks’ world: complex, dynamic and always changing.

It deserves a competition that can understand these complexities and keep pace with them. One that treats alcohol-free drinks with the same dedication that you do, whether you make them, sell them or write about them.

Here are six ways that the World Alcohol-Free Awards is the best competition for alcohol-free drinks.

• From spirits and RTDs to sparkling tea, or CBD sodas to red wines, the World Alcohol-Free Awards guarantees to have categories that work for your drink.
• We offer submitters the chance to choose from a wide range of mixers - and specify a precise mixing ratio, to ensure every drink will be tasted the way it’s meant to be.
• Entries are judged by experts in the field of alcohol-free drinks, including communicators, importers and retail and hospitality buyers. These are influential people who understand alcohol-free products. Getting your drinks in front of our tasters is amazing exposure in itself.
• WAFA awards trophies for the best drinks in each category, as well as recognising those that also go the extra mile to work in harmony with the planet and its people - with trophies for Best Organic, Vegan, Halal, Kosher, Gluten-free, non-GMO and Ethical.
• As well as all the results appearing on the competition’s website, and being widely promoted on social media accounts, winners have access to a range of marketing tools to help them make the most of their winning bottles.
• The Gold Medal winners are shown every year on WAFA’s stand at the London Wine Fair - one of Europe’s most well-established drinks expos.

No other global drinks competition is built around the needs of alcohol-free drinks in the way that WAFA is.
