How Much Should I Charge?

The amount you should charge as a Hitmix Bingo host depends on several factors — including your location, audience, venue type, and the experience you deliver.

💰 General Pricing Guidance

A Hitmix Bingo event typically sits in the same price range as a quiz or trivia night.

Just remember — if you’re charging similar rates, make sure your setup matches that level.

There’s no point charging pub quiz prices if you’re turning up with a nightclub’s worth of sound and lighting!

🍻 Pubs & Bars (Public Events)

These are usually regular bookings, and venues often prefer cost-effective packages that reflect an ongoing partnership.

While the rate might be slightly lower than private events, they offer:

• ✅ Consistent income
• 📣 Exposure for your brand
• 🔁 Opportunities for repeat bookings

🎉 Private Parties & Corporate Events

These are typically one-off bookings that give you more flexibility to charge higher rates, especially if:

• You’re creating custom or themed playlists
• You need to set up early
• The event runs for several hours
• You’re providing additional entertainment features

💼 Typical Pricing Benchmarks

• Private Parties: Often priced similarly to a DJ or MC gig.
• Corporate Events: Generally offer larger budgets for entertainment.

🌟 Add More Value (and Justify Higher Fees)

You can easily enhance your offering — and your fee — by including premium features like:

• 🎶 Themed Bingo Nights (e.g. 80s, ABBA, Movie Soundtracks)
• 🎁 Prizes (either supplied by you or the venue — charge extra if you provide them)
• 🎤 Karaoke or DJ add-ons between or after rounds
• 🎥 Visuals on a projector or screen for extra impact

🚗 Other Considerations

When setting your pricing, don’t forget to factor in:

💡 Tip:

Keep a record of what different venues and event types pay — over time you’ll build a clear picture of what works best for your market and experience level.
