If we make money at our village hall, its from the Raffle and bar. We certainly do not make any money from the door.
The money we make goes to things that help the village and the hall.
The money that comes in from the door, pays the performers and support acts and some times the bar licence and hire of the hall.

We try to keep our door price as low as possible, unless we are given a ticket price by the agent that we have to apply if we want the act.
