Update: 8/24/2021
We are just few days away from the 2021 California Rum Festival (CRF)
We have participated as an attendee in events that have done a phenomenal job (both staff, exhibitors, attendees, etc) to keep everyone safe. Now our turn is coming up for the California Rum Festival and we all need to work together to keep all of us safe.
We humbly ask that you review the protocols below and our health and safety requirements and ensure you can comply with them in full.
In accordance with the “San Francisco’s Safer Return Together Health Order” we have revised our admission protocols for the CRF. Everyone in attendance –visitors, exhibitors, vendors, media, speakers and staff MUST BE FULLY VACCINATED TO BE GRANTED ADMISSION TO CRF.
Show management reserves the right to remove any individual who is not in compliance with the requirements.

You can not use a self-attestation of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test. You must have proof that you are vaccinated. “Full Vaccination” means two weeks after your final dose of a COVID-19 vaccine.
We’re requiring vaccines to protect everyone against the continued spread of COVID-19. We want to cut down the spread of COVID-19 and keep San Francisco businesses open.
You can show your Vaccination Record Card (CRC) from the CDC. Or you can show an image of the card, if you have a picture on your phone. Or you can use a digital COVID-19 vaccine record issued by the State of California. You can also use an approved private app to verify your vaccination status.
If you don’t have your card, find out other ways to verify you have been vaccinated.
The following companies provide digital vaccine cards approved for use by San Francisco businesses:
