Consumption is down by 1.3 million pints of beer a day.
Attract the students. I like open mic nights personally. Giving people opportunities to do whatever it is they do without having to pay them, offer them the opportunity to advertise to your customers.

If they are clearly liked you could offer them incentives to play again. For example, you'll pay them so much if they attract a particular number of customers. In essence it would be like having a temporary shareholder for the evening who gets to take home a small cut of the profit.

We have an interesting night called stock market night. Basically, the least popular drinks are the cheapest, the most popular are expensive. Technically, this backfires if everyone is following the bars too closely and you need a good amount of people in, but it is a lot of fun but I suppose can get quite complicated for you. I think it's a fun night though.

Offer your pubs space for the fundraisers too. They will be looking for venues for their raising money and the people that attend them will inevitably buy drinks.
