trivia nights

Bar quiz events

Trivia nights are social events, typically at bars or pubs, where teams compete to answer questions across categories like history, pop culture, and science.

A host reads questions aloud, teams confer and write answers, and winners usually receive prizes or bar tabs: Our team finally won trivia night.

The format has become a staple of casual nightlife and workplace social outings.
