5 Ways To Make Pub Trivia Nights More Exciting

5 Ways To Make Pub Trivia Nights More Exciting

Hosting regular trivia nights is one of the most effective methods to keep a crowd coming back to your pub every week. However, even some of the best games can get stale over time, and it’s vital that you find new ways to maintain the excitement. If you’re looking for a few strategies to freshen up your pub’s trivia extravaganza, we have just what you need. These are some of our noteworthy ways to make pub trivia nights more exciting for everyone involved.

Bump Up Your Pub’s Atmosphere

If your pub’s overall atmosphere doesn’t promote excitement, it’s much more difficult to get your patrons pumped for the trivia festivities. As such, you must set the stage. Set up some decorations, start some music, and dress your staff in quiz-themed attire. There’s always a way to help boost the mood and get your customers ready for a night of fun.

Build the Hype With Marketing

It isn’t enough to create the perfect atmosphere within your pub, though. In fact, this technique is much more effective if you’re putting a lot of effort into marketing your event, too. With the right posters and social media presence, you can promote maximum anticipation before your patrons even walk in your doors. Put yourself out there and tell them what you have in store. Mentioning a few prizes also doesn’t hurt.

Offer Unique Prizes

It helps to offer new and unique prizes every week for the top few contestants. While gift cards and special deals are great, supplying the same thing at every trivia night is a recipe for boredom. But by mixing it up on occasion, you’re giving your crowd something more exciting to compete for. This will improve participation and keep tension high as you make your way through the questions.

Incorporate Popular Subjects or Topics

You can also make your pub trivia night more exciting by incorporating questions about some currently trending topics. Whether it’s sports teams in your area or the Harry Potter movies, there are plenty of subjects that your crowd will find exciting. Finding out what those things are and including them in your question lineup for the night will be a nice surprise to fans and keep them on their toes.

Keep Refreshing the Questions

You’ll want to periodically refresh the questions you’re asking during your trivia night. As more and more returning patrons come to these events, they’ll start to notice you recycling any questions you’ve asked previously. This demonstrates a lack of preparedness, and your crowd won’t like hearing the same old stuff. Switch it up to ensure there’s always a new topic to consider.

At Quiz Runners, we know that asking your crowd the same questions every week can be a bore for everyone. That’s why we’re proud to offer a subscription service with fresh weekly trivia questions from our talented team. With these packages, you’ll always have access to new and exciting questions to ask, and your audience will remain on the edges of their seats.
