Pepsi Fest #33
(March 14-16,2019)
Pepsi Fest 2022 is in the history books and after 2 years of not gathering - a great time as had by all. We were a little out of practice and things ran long, and we had to cut June Frost's "Pepsi & Pete" Seminar short (we were truly sorry) but we had a great Zoom call with Ron Khan, R&D VP of Beverage & Packaging at Pepsi Co.

PEPSI FEST #39 - March 13-15, 2025
Yahoo! Mountain Dew! - Pepsi Fest had a sub-theme this year as we celebrated 55 years of Mountain Dew as part of the Pepsi Family. Phillip Dillman presented an awesome seminar on the history of Mountain Dew. Along with our Silent Auction, Oral Auction, Pizza Party and Buffet Dinner (that we ate in by the light of flashlights and cellphones - as the wind blew down a pole outside the hotel), but it came back on in time for our Mini Collection displays and we topped off our final evening with a fantastic hat parade - over 30+ people participated. IF you missed it - you don't want to miss it next year ...

NOTES FOR PEPSI FEST #39 - 2025:
- Make your hotel room reservations early - it is easier for us to add rooms to our block before the hotel reservation deadline. Plus it is easier to cancel your reservation then to get one at the last minute.
- Issues with reserving a room for your dates: Book your room, for the dates that you want. If they say they don't have any room in the block for a certain date - make the reservation outside of the block (you will receive a second reservation with it's own confirmation number, then contact the secretary (by email - need paper trail) with the following information: Your name; Confirmation Number for each reservation, dates for each reservation. Once the secretary has that information - the hotel will be contacted and your two reservations combined into the block and the club rate.
- Make your reservation through the online link or phone number provided: Outside reservation sites may give you a slightly better room rate, but you'll have the resort fee added (it's waived for our block) and the club will not get credit for your room and thus affect our charges for meeting spaces.
Enjoyed the Ladies Club sponsored "Hat Parade" and the lovely models and fashions.

Pepsi Fest began in 1987, when members of the Pepsi Cola Collectors Club met in Indianapolis for the first time ever. It is held in March every year in Indianapolis, Indiana, with the exception of 1998, when Pepsi Fest was held in New Bern, North Carolina to celebrate Pepsi's 100th anniversary. Pepsi Fest is a three day event where collectors are given the opportunity to buy and trade from each other, attend seminars on Pepsi memorabilia, and get to know each other at social functions. The purpose of this event is to bring Pepsi collectors together from all over the world. The ultimate goal of the event is fun!
