New Member Benefit: Share Your Events on the ACA Website

Our members are doing exciting things across the country! As part of our ongoing commitment to support and promote your hard work and passion for crafting exceptional cider, we are introducing a new feature that will spotlight your cider events on our official website.

Showcase Your Events

Starting now, as a member of the American Cider Association, you will have the opportunity to feature your cider events on our website. Whether you’re hosting a tasting, a workshop, or a special seasonal celebration, this platform will provide you with greater visibility and will allow cider enthusiasts from across the nation to discover and attend your events. We’ve started with a few of our events to give you an idea of just what it will look like. Check it out here. There is also a direct link from our homepage to the Upcoming Cider Events page that will host all of your event submissions.

How It Works

We want to make this process as easy as possible for you. Here’s how you can get your events listed on the website:

1. Submit Your Event Details: The first step is to fill out our Event Submission Form. (You’ll be prompted to login to your ACA account in order to access the form. Once you’ve logged in you should see a link on the left menu bar on your member dashboard to submit your event) This is your opportunity to showcase what makes your event unique and appealing. Be sure to include all the enticing details that will draw cider lovers to your event.
2. Email Us Your Photo: Visuals are a powerful way to capture attention. Send us a photo that represents your event. The image should be 500×500 pixels and less than 2 MB in size. Email your photos to pickcider@ciderassociation.org. If a photo isn’t provided, we’ll use a stock image as a placeholder.
3. Review and Approval: Our team will review submitted events to ensure they align with our community standards and approve them onto the website.
4. Weekly Updates: Each Monday, we will update our website with the newly approved events. Be sure to submit your events in advance so they can be seen by the most people.

Why You Should Take Advantage of This Benefit

This new benefit is designed to enhance your event’s reach and impact. Our analytics show that people come to the ACA website looking for cider events. By being featured on our platform, you could potentially reach new cider enthusiasts eager to discover and participate in your events.
