It’s time to join the starting line-up for a Question of Sport, Harry’s Rainbow’s fundraising quiz, before tickets sell out.
Cricketing legend Darren Gough will be the quiz master for the event, which will be held at Stadium MK in February 2026. This is the second event of its kind organised by the Milton Keynes children’s bereavement charity.
Based on the popular BBC quiz show, guests compete against one another in an interactive battle of sporting knowledge as well as taking part a host of fun games and challenges. Each table will be allocated a team from the Premier League or Europa League, and will be playing for the honour of their team colours to add another competitive element.
Darren Gough will be joined by a number of celebrity guests, who will join in the quiz and will be seated at Celebrity Tables. The event is being sponsored this year by temperature control specialists Tool-Temp, with support from charity partners Issured, Opus, Brioche Pasquier, MK Dons and Ward Faith Media.
Tables for the black-tie dinner are priced at £1,400 including VAT and the price includes the drinks reception, three-course dinner and wine for the table. Platinum Tables are available at £1,800 including VAT for 10 people, and that includes the drinks reception, and a three-course meal with wine and champagne.
Celebrity Tables cost £3,800 including VAT and seat 10 people including a celebrity guest. The price also includes a drinks reception, a three-course meal, wine and champagne on the table, and a prime position in the room.
Alison Johnson, Fundraising and Events Manager at Harry’s Rainbow, said: “Tables are selling fast for the second Question of Sport event. It was a big success earlier this year we are hoping next year’s will be even bigger and better – and we’ve been warned that Darren Gough has a few interesting ideas for fundraising games, so it should be a fun night. As well as the quiz rounds and fundraising games, there will also be a silent auction.
“We’ve had generous support from a number of local businesses who are not only getting involved but helping us spread the word and sell tables, so we’re hoping for a sell-out crowd!”
