Summer, footy finals, Christmas parties and long weekends make this the busiest stretch of the year for pubs, taverns and clubs. Good signs fill the beer garden, sell the specials and point people to the right bar. This guide covers the fun, front-of-house signs. For the liquor licensing and gaming notices you may need, see our licensed venue signs by state guide.

5. Smoking areas and outdoor dining
Smoking and vaping rules for beer gardens and outdoor dining areas vary by state. Our no smoking and no vaping signs guide and café and restaurant signs guide cover the options.
6. Licensing and gaming notices
Licensed venues usually need state-specific notices about minors, intoxication and responsible service, and gaming venues have their own rules. These differ between states, so check with your state liquor and gaming regulator. Our licensed venue signs by state guide lists the notices we make for each state.
7. Safety basics
Busy venues need clear exits and visible fire equipment. See our exit signs guide, fire extinguisher signs guide and wet floor signs guide.
