Give people a reason to buy a ticket
You're offering more than a fundraising appeal. Supporters have the opportunity to enjoy a social evening with friends, family and their community.
Why a game show night works as a fundraiser
Encourage group bookings
Selling tables gives families, friends, colleagues or community groups the opportunity to attend together. It can also make ticket promotion easier when supporters invite others to join their table.
More than one way to raise funds
Ticket and table sales can form the foundation of your fundraiser, while light-hearted fines during the show provide an additional fundraising opportunity.
An event you can build on
A fundraising evening can become something your community looks forward to. Creating a positive experience gives supporters a reason to consider attending your next event.
Fundraising ideas to add to the night
Looking for ways to make the most of your fundraising evening? Here are a few ideas your committee can consider.
Sell tables, not single tickets
Ask each family, class or cell group to fill a table. Teams arrive ready to compete, and your seats sell in groups.
Fun fines
Small, good-natured fines during the evening are a Musiekpret favourite. Teams pay up with a smile, and it all goes to the cause.
Table and round sponsors
Invite local businesses to sponsor a table, a round or the prize for the winning team in return for a mention on the night.
Raffle or lucky draw
Sell numbers at the door and draw the winners between rounds, while everyone is in the room and in a good mood.
A short auction
A handful of donated items, auctioned at the right moment in the programme. Tell us in advance and we plan it in.
Food, drinks and a theme
A meal, a cash bar or picnic baskets all add income. A dress-up theme with a best-dressed prize makes the night an event.

Questions people ask us
What kind of organisations book Musiekpret for fundraising?
Schools, churches, sports clubs, charities and community groups. Any organisation with supporters who would enjoy a night out together.
How does the evening raise money?
The main income is ticket or table sales, which you set and keep. On top of that come extras such as fun fines, a raffle, sponsors, an auction and food and drink sales.
How much work is it for our committee?
Less than most events. You handle the venue, the invitations and the seats. The entertainment and the running of the show are ours.
Do guests need to know a lot about music?
No. The show is built so that the music fan and the everyday guest both get to score, and so that all ages have something they recognise.
