Entertainment Ideas for Your Next Fundraising Event

higherimages • Feb 23, 2017

 

Fundraising events have become increasingly important in many organizations, as many companies look for ways to entertain and encourage donors, while providing them with a memorable evening. The key to success in entertainment is to keep your audience engaged while ensuring that the entertainment is fun. Entertainment that misses the mark or falls flat may provide an obstacle to not only the evening, but producing successful results. Below are a few key things to consider in entertainment for your nest fundraising event that will help ensure its success:

 

Entertainment that engages your audience’s demographic – A performer who has the experience in catering to a specific type of crowd is likely to get the best results. For instance, a younger band whose music is known as “edgy” may not sit well with a more conservative crowd. You will want an entertainer who understand their audience and can engage them on a level that appeals to them.

 

Clean comedy – Humor is always popular at corporate events, and clean comedy is always a hit. Finding an experienced comedian who can make your audience laugh is sure to provide them with an evening that is not only entertaining, but memorable.

 

Artist experience – Painting parties are growing as we speak, and companies that provide a painting experience are finding themselves booked continuously. Live art is not only entertaining, it provides a unique experience that is particularly popular in cultural organization fundraisers.

 

Unique musical acts Bands and DJs are great for evenings where guests are mingling and/or dancing. But when music is the sole focus of entertainment, you want a unique and engaging act that your audience will not only listen to, but remember.
