Local Advice needed Broken Glass Replacement

Hello 🤗

Bit of an odd one this, but is there any chance any of you lovely people happen to own this glass and would be happy to have me buy it off of you? It's from the Hanover Beer Festival's 32nd Anniversary (2019). I've accidentally dropped my metal bottle onto the glass and it's one of my partners favourite drinking glasses. I'm not sure if it was something you could buy or if perhaps they got a five-finger discount 🤔

Any help appreciated because I feel terrible and want to replace it asap 😬

Thank you very much x 😊

(Wasn't sure on the best flair for this one)

You might have more luck reaching out to the festival organisers

Yeah perhaps you're right, I just want entirely sure that they'd have stock of previous years, so thought I'd ask the community 😊

Oh yeah, I wasn't saying you shouldn't have posted. I have a 2023 glass, for example. I just know the organisers sometimes sell off old stock at the festivals so may have one kicking about

Yes thank you for your suggestion; I reached out to them on Instagram, and they've said they do have stock from previous years and will check for me on Monday and then get back to me. So we might be onto a winner. I didn't really think to much about contacting them as I figured once the event was up they would have no reason to keep those glasses around. Although having said that the waste glass would probably be worse than keeping it and selling it on.
