We do a lot of these for clubs and schools around Louth — GAA clubs, fundraising committees, community groups — and plenty of jobs that go out wider across Leinster when groups are running bigger events. Sometimes the draw is in Drogheda, but tickets are sold in Dundalk and even up into Dublin because someone’s sister works up there and brings a stack into the office. That’s how it spreads.

Design can be plain or colourful. Doesn’t matter. What matters is clarity: prize, draw date, location, and how to contact the organiser if someone loses the ticket. A phone number or email on the ticket is genuinely useful. People do lose them. Often.

Paper choice depends on budget, but don’t go too thick if you’re perforating. A nice firm stock that tears cleanly is better than a heavy card that rips awkward. If you want them numbered and perforated properly, that’s something we set up so it’s consistent from start to finish. No random gaps in numbering. No duplicates. That’s the bit that saves hassle.
