3rd Annual Harry Potter Trivia Fundraiser

October 25, 2025 @ 6pm

HOLD ON TO YOUR BROOMS! Join us for our 3rd Harry Potter Trivia Night! You don't want to miss out on this wizardly wonderful event!

 
Tickets go on sale 9/28/2025. They may be purchased in person at CNHS, by calling 308-385-5305, or online. We will sell tickets until 10/19/2025 or until we are sold out! Tickets are $10 per person.

There is NO age requirement for trivia participants, however, all attendees, regardless of age, must be old enough to actively participate in the event, pay the entry fee, and will be counted towards their team's numbers. 

Teams may have up to 6 people. The deadline to fill your team is 10/19/2025. After this date, teams with 3 players or less will be combined with other teams to create full teams. Player spots must be paid for at the time of registration to be reserved. We only have spots for 20 teams!

This round of trivia will include a mix of questions from the Harry Potter books and movies. Each question is worth 1 point, the team with the most points at the end of the night wins. The winning trivia players will each receive a custom Harry Potter Trivia trophy!

We will have bonus question dollar rounds, where your team can pay $1 to participate in the extra trivia round and potentially earn more points! Be sure to pack your dollars!

In addition to trivia, we will have a costume contest and raffle prizes. The costume contest will take place midway through trivia! We will crown the best general costume and the best Harry Potter themed costume based on audience votes.
 
Harry Potter drinks will be available at the cash bar and food may be ordered.
