Peninsula Rural Fire Brigade will host the night, with proceeds to support the upgrade of the fire station at Mirrabooka.
"We are raising money for our building fund as we hope to significantly expand the station in the next couple of years," deputy captain David Lemcke said.
"Tickets are $20 each and we're encouraging people to eat at the club before we start.
"It's a trivia night with some games thrown in and maybe even some bushfire safety questions.
"The active brigade boasts about 36 members and attends incidents in an area, including most of the Morisset Peninsula, bushland near the hospital, and a large section of the M1," Mr Lemcke said. "As well as bushfires we also attend vehicle accidents, building fires, spills, storm damage and many other incidents to help the community.
"We have recently been involved in hazard reduction burns including at Durren Durren (south of Mandalong), Teralba, Rathmines and various burns in Sydney."
The trivia night will be held from 7pm on Saturday, November 1.
