FAQs:
How long does a night of Music Bingo normally run?
On average, about 2 hours. Each rounds lasts anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes depending on how the playlist chooses to play out that particular night.
Is the event family friendly?
The problem with saying yes to this question is that everyone has different standards on what is considered family friendly. Are kids welcome to attend and have fun? Yes. Is the host and/or songs going to swear at times? Also yes. We like to be authentic with our presentation of the event. so the host does not hold back unless it is previously discussed that they need to.
Can the rounds be requested or customized?
Yes, with enough notice the rounds can be altered to fit any occasion. New rounds can even be made to highlight a birthday of an individual. Just dont send a message the day before the event and expect it to get done.
Will this event help grow my business/generate sales?
Nothing in life is guaranteed, but our hosts are not trained to just show up and hit a button on a playlist. We want to help everyone have a good time which will ultimately create retention for your business and benefit all parties involved.
This all sounds great. What’s the catch/ cost?
No catch. In order to determine if we are a good fit each other, there is a one month trial period at a lowered rate. At that point, if LongWayFromKent Entertainment and the venue determine that we want to work together, than the starting rate is $180 moving forward but may need to be adjusted if it’s determined that additional equipment is needed.

It could be a music bingo fundraiser, a special event, or if you have an idea for a recurring event and need help making it happen, give us a call, text, or email.
