A Games Night is a fun competition of team against team tailored to suit your group. The emphasis is on entertainment and each round is a different format of quiz questions designed to suit different peoples abilities. This is not your usual trivia night as our Games show feature different rounds where the emphasis is on having fun and not who is the smartest.
A usual nights format is:
ROUND ONE
General Trivia. A selection of various fun questions
Music Quiz. Choose the song name and the artist

ROUND TWO
Pick your face. Celebrity and sports photographs are projected onto our screen and you have to guess who they are or who is their current partner. A good round for those that read womens magazines. Film Quiz. Short film grabs are projected onto the screen and you have to choose the name of the film
Television themes. Guess the theme from the current and past television themes

ROUND THREE
Match the word. Can you think of a good excuse for missing work starting with the letter T?
Sing the next Line. We speak a line from a popular song and you have to "sing the next line"
There are many other rounds we can include including Who wants to be a Millionaire, Karaoke challenge, Gender Bender, Race around the world and more. Talk to us about arranging a night that suits your guests.
Nothing is taken too seriously and none of the games are very hard. This is a trivia night for the intellectually challenged! We can also add a theme and include special questions on your corporation. Best done over dinner with music included usually between entree and main, (30 minutes) between main and dessert (30 minutes) and then finish after dessert (30 minutes).

Horse Race game 830C-Melbourne

An interactive and entertaining horse race event for indoor or outdoor use including betting and "live" horse racing (without the horses). Available in Victoria only

How it Works
Each punter is given a starting pot of $1000 "dollars" to bet as they like on each race - only one bet on a win is taken. 
Each race features six “horses” selected from your guests. Two large dice are thrown, the first selects the horse that will be moving and the second dice selects the number of places it will move. The dice are thrown again and again until one "horse" makes it to the end of the track to be the winner. As the race progresses and horses move our comic host builds the excitement just like a real horse race.
Winnings are automatically displayed and the leading punters are indicated. During the night there are more races with different odds, quinella's and "hurdles" to overcome as horses may land on problem squares containing such instructions as "move back 3 spaces", horse racing trivia questions or a physical challenge! At the end of a possible six race program the leading punter is recognised!
There can also be a prize for the winner of each race. 
What we Supply
Large (10m x 4 m) track including fencing, dice and six "horses". Computer program that automatically calculates odds and projects winnings, race books and host/compere. A NIght at the Races can easily be placed around a sit down meal or stand up finger food either indoors or outdoors, day or night. We do not normally supply prizes but can quote for this if required.

Fundraising 118B-Weekly Trivia Competition-Oz style

TRIVIA NIGHT OZ Style

A trivia night is a great way to have a really fun evening while making buckets of money for your organisation, if fundraising is on your agenda. Let 1995 Sale Of The Century champ Leon loose on your audience and you'll see how he lives up to the promise of "making sure they have so much fun that they don't realise how generous they're being". If you don't require the fundraising aspect for your night, we still ensure that you and your crowd will be scratching their heads, rolling in the aisles and generally having a puzzlingly good time.

Leon has run thousands of trivia events for all types of organisations - schools, sports clubs, community groups, charities and corporate clients, and in a whole range of venues - pubs, clubs, halls, boats, planes, tents and trains. He knows what works with which audience and can help you achieve your outcomes, be it fundraising and/or fun or whatever mix of both that you require.

trivia nights are a unique mix of formal trivia rounds presented in a multimedia (video, written, CD and tape) format, interspersed with fundraising and/or fun activities. We provide everything you need - quizmaster, all equipment including professional standard audio gear, advice, promotional materials, experience and expertise - to have a successful event. You provide the venue, audience, catering and prizes. We are happy to consult with you to assist on any aspect of planning and conducting the event.
