Your best bet would be to send the assignment editor a fax, telling them about the event. Maybe you'd make it on to the 11 o'clock news. And the other person is right; a charity-related event obviously would help your chances.
Not much of news value there, but stranger things have happened.
Knock 'em dead.

Most likely not. Also, 30 seconds on an evening news broadcast is a huge amount of time.
If there was some sort of fund raising or charity tie-in you might have a chance, but it would have to be something exceptional and very unique.
Good luck though!

No, unless the event would impact a lot of people (such as a big festival) or for some kind of worthy cause.
You could possibly suggest they do a human interest story on local stand ups in the area...but that would not benefit you for this particular night.
