Free Fr. 50.- voucher for all knowitall.ch readers who rent a bouncy castle!

Parties seem to be all the rage at the moment, and while many of our readers are happy to use the services of websites like Partybooker.ch, featured recently on our site (link when article is published), others simply don’t have the time to source entertainers and party suppliers themselves.

What they need is a company that will take on board all their party requirements, and put together a party package that is guaranteed to entertain their children and have their friends talking about it for months afterwards!

Couldn’t get enough of the summer? How about extending the holiday feeling by organizing a party with friends, family or colleagues? For many, that's easier said than done!  Where can you go to find a different, fun and memorable venue? How do you go about booking the most appropriate, reliable and mouthwatering caterer? How do you pep up the event with an original animation or special decoration ?

These, and many more overwhelming questions, were raised by two entrepreneurial friends, Valérie Overdick and Katja Dutruy, when tasked with organizing a birthday party last year. This revealing experience convinced them both of the need to create a website that facilitates the organization of small to medium events. Their challenge was to make organizing an event fun and easy. Persuaded that sharing experiences, addresses and tips would save time and lead to a successful party, they set about collating many addresses, which would offer party organizers a large variety of options for all budgets. A year later, www.partybooker.ch was launched!

A new casual soccer league has been set up in Lausanne to help raise money for street kids around the world.  Called StreetSoccer-Lausanne, the new league was created by Glyn Atherton, a local soccer enthusiast inspired by the many fund-raising events, which took place in Rio throughout the recent World Cup in Brazil.

Explaining why he decided to set up the league, Glyn told knowitall.ch, “My step-daughter enjoys having a kick about with me and I wanted to find a way for her to enjoy soccer with other kids but without it being too serious.  As I got to thinking more about it, I realized we could also use the opportunity to raise funds for the world’s street kids at the same time.  The idea of forming a fun and casual soccer league for charity was quickly born.”

A unique opportunity to visit the nerve center of European football and mingle with champions will take place on 4 October, 2014, when UEFA celebrates its 60th birthday by opening its doors to football fans from all over the region.

This free open day will be an opportunity to learn about European football’s governing body, with a chance to see the trophies at the House of European Football and visit the match command centre, where the tension is almost tangible on match nights. Visitors will also get to see a specially produced film: 60 years of UEFA.
