'Who wants to be a Thousandaire?' comes to Galway Bay Hotel in Salthill tomorrow, Thursday 6 December, as part of a Knocknacarra FC fundraiser.

This show has attracted large audiences all over Ireland over the past five years and is fast becoming the most popular source of fund-raising for schools and clubs. Contestants are drawn from ticket sales and each contestant will play for €1,000. The show is fully computerised with '50/50', 'Ask the Audience' and a video-linked 'Phone a Friend'. The questions and four possible answers are displayed on two six by eight feet screens, one at each side of the stage.

"We have been in contact with several others groups who ran, 'Who Wants to be a Thousandaire?' shows around the country with great success. We are all looking forward to a great night on Thursday 6 December as the show is really hi-tech and offers a superb night's entertainment. The show is timed to start at 8pm and we would encourage people to come early to ensure a seat," said Fintan Maher, treasurer of Knocknacarra FC.

"We would also like to say a particular word of thanks to our main sponsor, Mc Donalds Gaillimh in Westside, and to all of those who have taken out advertising at the show," he said.

Tickets for 'Who wants to be a Thousandaire?' are available from any member of the fundraising committee or at the door on the night.
