The information below answers the most frequently asked questions about the show. \u00a0If you have questions that are not answered here, please contact us using the contact form on this website.<\/p>\n\t\t\tHow are kids\/caregivers selected?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t When we have the tickets ready to allocate, our dedicated team contact numerous organisations and Schools throughout the region that the Kids Day Out Variety Show will be taking place in. We ask those that work with the children on a daily\/weekly basis to select children and families that they feel will benefit from this fantastic event. Children are selected from four main categories: \u00a0Physical Disability, Mental Disability,\u00a0Health issues,\u00a0and children that may be in an environment or have been removed from an environment that has been deemed to be unsafe.<\/p>\n Many of the children on the face of it may not look like what some would deem ‘special needs’, but are involved\u00a0with community based\u00a0organisations that care for children who are disabled or who have special needs. In some cases we do have Schools that\u00a0purchase tickets for the event. These tickets are then used by the School as rewards\/prizes for their ‘in class’ competitions.<\/p>\n\t\t\tAre you able to film\/take photos at the event?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t You are welcome to take pictures of your group in the main entrance of the event, but we do ask you not to film or photograph the actual show.\u00a0 Many of the acts require 100% focus and can become very dangerous if flashes and lights are going off.\u00a0 Also please be sensitive to those attending, as many of the families do not wish to be identified at the show.<\/p>\n\t\t\tCan you get tickets to the Show?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t If you are affiliated to a group\/organisation detailed in the ‘How are kids\/caregivers selected? section, then the answer is yes, however seats for the shows are limited so you may find that you may miss out due to this.\u00a0 We suggest you fill out the ‘Request more tickets’ form, and at least this way you will register for the next year\u2019s show.<\/p>\n\t\t\tHow is the event funded?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t We are very lucky that businesses in each community that the Kids Day Out Variety Show goes to get behind the show each year providing much needed support through donations and merchandise. This helps to ensure the event comes to your region\/city each year. Please take the time to write a letter of thanks to the businesses that support, or an email to promoter@kidsdayoutvariety.co.nz<\/a>\u00a0because without them, the Kids Day Out Variety Show wouldn’t happen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Frequently Asked Questions The information below answers the most frequently asked questions about the show. \u00a0If you have questions that are not answered here, please contact us using the contact form on this website.
