Spectacular Trivia & Music Bingo nights like no other!

G’day legend, my name is Jacob and welcome .

Whether you’re holding a large corporate function, community fundraiser, or want to put bums on seats in your venue. Yarnberg has a range of entertainment options to meet your needs.

The team at Mars Wrigley have never had a trivia night quite like the one Jacob from Yarnberg Entertainment put on and safe to say we never will – the bar is now raised so high!

Jacob knew how to work the crowd – from his singing, to trivia questions, to games and all in between – the teams were always entertained and we’d never seen each other laugh harder.

If any companies are looking for a highly entertaining and fun event – look no further than Jacob at Yarnberg Entertainment!”

What are people saying?

Jacob is incredible at what he does, he is a fun and enthusiastic trivia host who gets involved with the crowd and makes the night more than just your average trivia night!!!
Ernst & Young
Jacob did an amazing job at our music bingo event, pulling off a two-hour show entirely on his own. His multiple outfit changes and perfectly curated playlist captivated the students' attention and enthusiasm throughout. It's a skill not everyone has, and it made for a truly memorable night. We look forward to many more successful events with him!
La Trobe University
Hi Jacob! Your gorgeous voice and eccentric acting made this a night to remember. This is definitely the most fun trivia night we’ve ever played. On behalf of the Year 12 Huntingtower cohort, we thank you for lifting our spirits and being the best red-brid-man-thing!

Holey moley! You haven't experienced a trivia night until you've been to one hosted by Jacob. This guy is a legend. He's engaging, he's entertaining, he makes it fun and you have to check out his enormous wings! I was referred to Jacob and I can tell you I'll be referring him on.

We wanted to say a big thank you to Jacob creating such a fun loving and engaging night. I highly recommend Jacob and Yarnberg Entertainment, they recently did the trivia for our fundraising night and it was phenomenal. If you want to see trivia done differently, give him a call.

Jacob was a delight as a host. Everyone had a really great time and thoroughly enjoyed themselves at our first national firm event since the pandemic.

If going the extra mile was an Olympic sport, Jacob would be glued to the gold medalist podium.

Jacob came and did a trivia night for my cricket club that was a huge success and also hosts at my local sporting globe which my friends and I head to weekly. It's impossible not to have a good time with Jacobs positive vibes and high energy. Definitely be ready for the big nights when his wings come out or his lightsabers. Highly recommend

Jacob was easy to deal with and happy to cater to our business needs. He provided everything we needed to run a fun session; music, paper, pens, certificates etc. i would highly recommend Yarnberg Entertainment
Department of Education & Training
Jacob is an absolute legend. I’m in a unique position because I met him while he was doing trivia nights at my local, but I ended up working with him as well on a charity event. He is hard working and reliable to work with, but also so relatable and fun to be around for the people enjoying the entertainment he brings. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Central House coworking space
Right from the beginning Jacob was super easy to work with. Confirmation and follow ups were thorough and met our quirky requests without a hitch. Jacob is amazingly confident, hilarious, clever and witty. From being an amazing singer, to remembering everyone's name, to involving everyone in some way, it's the best ice breaker, especially for a corporate event. HIGHLY recommend
South East Monash Legal Services
Jacob knew how to help us celebrate our staff Christmas party! He got to know everyone's name, started inside jokes, got everyone involved and made you feel comfortable to join in and give it a go. The night was full of laughter and entertainment, with music and performances/tricks. I highly recommend Yarnberg Entertainment, to anyone needing a fun night. He is so easy and great to work with, you won’t regret it!
Austin Hospital Olivia Newton John Cancer Centre
Jacob did an amazing job for our online trivia afternoon. He was very entertaining with his questions and guitar playing. Jacob kept our Australian and overseas teams engaged the whole time and made it look seamless. Would definitely be using Yarnberg Entertainment again.
Covaler
We had a great time with Jacob hosting music bingo for a lockdown work event. It was the most entertaining lockdown event we’e had and we can’t wait to hold it again, in person next time! Jacob was very entertaining and we certainly enjoyed his musical talents on various instruments. What a great way to kick off the weekend on a Friday evening.
WSP Engineering
Highly recommend Jacob for your next trivia event! From the enquiry, his communication was great with an easy booking process. On the night he went above and beyond to keep our group entertained. Not a single complaint from anyone who attended. A night full of laughs and memories.
Casey & District Multiple Birth Association
Jacob is one of a kind entertainer! He is so passionate about making everyone feel included and have the best yarnberg experience! Highly highly recommend!!
Georgia
Jacob nailed our trivia event fundraiser! He had the whole crew captivated by his performance (which included a few great sing-a-longs). It was a fun time and a great way to get our club together for a social event. Would recommend Yarnberg Entertainment to anyone who wants to work with an organised, easy-going and creative host! Thanks Jacob!

How I Roll

Nothing but legends!

The goal of Yarnberg is to create spaces where people feel like legends and can be celebrated for who they are in a highly inclusive environment.

Crowd interaction

No matter the size of the crowd, from 8 to 800+, I run two way events. Players will be engaged from start to finish in a highly enjoyable experience.

I even remember people’s names!

The right vibe

The Yarnberg performance and content is tailored to the audience. I love people and I’ve yet to meet an audience I can’t entertain, be that gamers, footy fans, CEOs, toddlers, seniors and everything in between.

Make your life easy

Jacob has hosted more than 589 events for over 7 years with a 5 star Google Rating
