My Breakthrough
Ideas for your Banquet
Take a look at our ideas to get you thinking of the kind of Banquet you might like to hold. Remember, you can make your Banquet into anything you choose and as easy or complex as you wish.
If you like the simple life how about one of the following?
- Afternoon tea - with plenty of cakes for sale. You could try this at work and make it part of everyone’s tea break for a day.
- Traditional Sunday lunch
- Pot luck lunch - ask everyone to bring a mystery dish of their choice along.
- Fondue night
- Wimbledon themed afternoon - get together to watch a match with strawberries and cream. You could always hold a sweepstake to raise extra funds on how far the British players will go this year.
- Dinner party
- Picnic in the park with friends - follow it up with rounders or football matches.
- BBQ with friends
For more challenging ideas take a look at these suggestions
- Pre match breakfast - If you are part of a sports team, why not try this and raise extra funds by holding a sweepstake on the score with a prize for the winner and the takings towards your fundraising.
- Holiday themed night - Pretend you are in sunnier climes! Serve tapas or have a BBQ and get everyone dressed up in their beach wear.
- Cook it together once everyone arrives - A great get together for families with lots of children, give everyone a pizza base and have a table full of toppings for people to make their own or indulge a sweet tooth and make your own ice cream sundaes.
- Dinner or buffet with a people auction - each guest pledges a specific task or favour in return for a donation to Breakthrough.
- Curry night - make your own or order a take away. Follow it up with a Bollywood dancing competition and everyone can donate to make the friend of their choice dance!
