If you run a bar, restaurant, or brewery, you already know a live trivia night can turn a dead Tuesday into your best night of the week. But what about the other six nights — the ones where you don't have a host booked?
That's the gap between two very different ways to run trivia, and most venues only know about one of them.
Hosted trivia: your signature night
A live-hosted trivia night — the kind you run with a Quizrunners subscription and a host on the mic — is an event. It's the night regulars circle on their calendar, the night you promote on social media, the night that fills the room. It works because a real person is running the room: reading questions, building energy, giving away prizes.
The tradeoff: it needs a host, a night on the schedule, and setup every week.
Always-on trivia: every other night, covered
Anytime Trivia is built by the same team behind Quizrunners, for the nights you don't have a host. Plug a device into any TV, guests scan a QR code and play on their phones — no app, no signup. New questions every day, live leaderboards, and a built-in ad builder so you can promote drink specials between rounds. Setup takes about 15 minutes and the first month is free.
It's not a replacement for your signature hosted night — it's what's running on the TVs the rest of the week.
