What are the origins of the expression ‘Lanterne rouge’? This could be one of the knowledge questions during one of our quizzes. Or: where were pub quizzes first organised? We’re happy to tell you the answer to that.
There is only one country where you can find a pub on every corner: Great Britain. This is where the pub quiz originated. A phenomenon from the 70s, which quickly grew and spread all over the world.
What is a pub quiz exactly? It’s like Trivial Pursuit, except in a pub. Trivia questions about history, sports, geography, music, culture: the possibilities are endless. Questions are often accompanied by videos, music and images. The teams write their answers to the quizmaster’s questions on an answer sheet. The team with the most points wins. Sounds pretty straightforward, right? Not if you play with us. We provide the traditional pub quiz with a twist. Deviating game formats, challenging assignments, special locations and fitting themes: we mix custom content with general knowledge and create a fully custom pub quiz for your company.
Enough trivia about pub quizzes. Time for the sample quiz!
You’ll have to picture the quizmaster being there. We’ll also leave checking the answers up to you. But the testing (and enriching!) of your knowledge will certainly be achieved through this quiz. This XL-sample quiz is made up of an impressive 10 rounds of 10 questions each. From general knowledge to music trivia. From regular ‘mixed bag’ rounds to rounds that will show you what to expect from a corporate quiz. How many points will you score?
