- What kind of event would you love to host?
We recently just rolled out with our newest service, Music Video Bingo, so its still exciting to play and watch people really getting into the music.
- What’s your #1 question about hosting events?
People ask me all the time about how it began. I wanted to find a routine way for a group of my friends to get together after the COVID-19 pandemic so we attended some weekly trivia nights. After a few rotating hosts, I decided to give it a shot. long story short, what went from approximately 15 players a week grew to over 100 players on some nights. We began hosting tournaments and even did fundraisers for local charities. Now, we operate 5 different Trivia locations, 3 Karaoke locations and 2 Music Video Bingo locations across the most populated capital city in the United States.
This is where you come in. If you have ever wondered about hosing a trivia nights or pictured yourself surrounded by friends every week during Karaoke; this is your chance. Let’s make some magic happen. ✨
