Contact local businesses and see if they would like to donate goods or vouchers. Trivia nights are so much fun

Always go with a theme and lots of small prizes – keeps everyone super happy.

I would have a raffle that’s drawn on the night, sell lots of ticket. Sell tickets at the door for a lucky door prize. Have a prize wheel where you sell numbered tickets, draw balls out of a barrel/bowl, whoever has the matching number goes up and picks a prize. It’ll help if people donate the prizes, they don’t need to be expensive, just fun

Kinda depends on the age of your crowd. You could have all sorts of fun with this tho. Maybe gave a themed trivia night? Mind boggling options here. Sport, 80s music, AFL, country based, animals etc etc etc

these are all great ideas for school fundraisers

Lo of finger food!!

How did the trivia night go? What did you end up doing?

Raffle tickets are always a winner, lots of people can’t resist them

ask for the entry fee as well as donations at the door, get people to donate the prize and have a raffle that the prize has been donated also

have lucky seat prizes and also hold a raffle while it is one, provide a light supper for a small cost also. Offer simple coffee and cake

Silent auction, heads and tails, closest coin rolled to the bottle of baileys, buy and answer and definitely make sure you get everyone to put their phones on the table on silent! It’s not fair to cheat!

this article has helped me out as well 😀 thanks

Great event to hold. throwing gold coins at Bottle of Port etc. Have a great raffle prize, and sell tickets leading up to event. Try to get as many donations as possible, not costing you anything. Freebies can even be products for the supper, tea , coffee etc.Mystery question and each table pays for guess. If tables need a hint they need to pay for answer.

you can always run a silent auction that starts before the trivia questions

Okay, there’s always the know it all at every trivia night. Set the ground rules with “my decision is final and all arguments will be met with $1 fine” If you make it fun you can earn a fair bit from little things like this. Also, try and get businesses to donate prizes and auction them off between rounds. Have fun!

Just for during the quiz, have a photo round where they have to guess who people are (have only there noses or blur the pics). Also, Pinterest has some good ideas on there and also some good games on this site to play during – http://www.quiznightquestions.com.au/quiz-night-games/

Theme it.. Get local business to donate prizes and give them free advertising on the night and stacks of plugs,
Have a prized for the best dressed table, maybe do an 80s theme.
Do a BYO and say there will be a corkage fee, do a silent suction on the night Etc,, good luck

lucky door prizes, raffles, donations at door as well as entry and have a paid supper as well

silent auctions. raffles. get the kids parents to donate a prize for the raffle

maybe you can ask the parents aswell
