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 Fent 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.

TriviaOz! 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.
