Additional Games to your Race Night

You can integrate as many as you wish into your night, but all carry an additional £25.00 fee onto the Race Night Package to cover the materials required and extra time onto the evening.

Play Your Cards Right

From the famous TV game show hosted by Bruce Forsythe, Play Your Cards Right can be a great way to start the evening with raffle tickets sold and drawn out with the aim being to get from bottom to top with the higher and lower guesses.

The first person to achieve it takes home a 50% of the takings.

Rock & Roll/Music Bingo

Start the night with some classic party anthems with a game of Rock & Roll/Music Bingo. With 15 to 30 second clips from hit after hit being played, this fast paced variation on bingo will get your race goers singing and dancing before getting under starters orders.
