Bars and eateries in Ontario are not packed with customers every day. People usually hang out in these places during weekends or special occasions. The daytime or weekdays are slow, so the bars and restaurants don’t earn much revenue at these times.
However, they cannot depend only on weekends or special occasions to stay in business. That’s why they often organize fun events to attract more customers during weekdays or seasons. Here are some fun activities you can notice in these bars and restaurants.
Live music
Live music can set the bar or restaurant stand out from the rest. You will find many such venues where live music is playing, and you will notice more crowds there. Hearing live music when having lunch or dinner is a great experience.
Stand-up comedy
This is great entertainment for the guests. People are always busy with their work, and listening to a standup comedian while sipping into a glass of wine can make them feel relaxed. Bars and restaurants that hire stand-up comedians often see an increase in their revenue.
Viewing parties
Big screens are set up at the bar or restaurant where popular shows and movies are screened so that the customers can watch together — for example, the opening ceremony of the Olympics or the last episode of a popular TV series. You can set up a special menu and drinks for such events.
Speed dating
On speed dating nights at a bar or restaurant, many people turn in. People love making new friends, and it’s often fun to talk to strangers and slowly get to know them. You can provide them with free items to encourage them to order more food and drinks.
These events are very enjoyable and attract lots of customers to the bars and restaurants. They must be well organized and marketed to motivate people to come to the venue.
