Its just an open air marter like in Punchestown, yes its a bit late considering we're opening tomorrow, the guy i had booked has pulled out thats why i'm on t'internet looking for a quick fix.


I already thought of 2 girls 1 cup, but its a family event.

Thank you

Invites and free drinks for AH's,then we talk about gimmicks.

Free food, cocktail sausages, cheap and easy.

If your market is good enough you won't need gimmicks.

It is good Zohan, but we want something to wow the crowds on opening day. Its not something that'll be there every week, just something for the opening.

Too many cups.


If your target market is families then maybe organise a bouncy castle/sumo wrestling or something along those lines, you are seriously limited given the fact that it's on tomorrow.

You can treat tomorrow as a soft opening and plan something big for next time.

Sell whatever it is you're selling for half price.

Also, what are you selling?

Flying Abruptly

Samantha Conroy from the Apprentice to go around singing on a megaphone - should bring the crowds rolling in!!

Rent some sort of ridiculous costume and pay someone to wander about the place handing out flyers and getting kicked by children.
Or bake a pie.
I love pies.

Gran Hermano

How about a fun fair, with some of the following attractions:

The Whirly Go Round
The Pool of Terror
The Crane of Death
Goading the Fierce Man
The Spinning Cat
The Ladder
Freak Pointing
