Six steps with the quiz night builder, from planning to crowning a winner.
Open Quiz night builder and choose 3–8 rounds of 5 or 10 questions. Four rounds of 10 fill about an hour.
Choose one category per round or mixed rounds, and Gets harder so the final round decides the winner. Add a tiebreaker. Swap any round you do not like with New round.
Copy the question sheet for yourself and the answer key for marking. Teams of two to six players with a fun team name work best.
Read slowly, repeat it, and give about 30 seconds per question. Ask teams to put phones away.
Have teams swap answer sheets, read out the answers, and update a visible scoreboard. It keeps everyone engaged.
If teams are level, read the tiebreaker. Each team writes a number and the closest answer wins.
| Format | Rounds | Time | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quick quiz | 3 rounds of 5 | 15–20 minutes | Classroom warm-ups, family dinners, meeting icebreakers |
| Team quiz | 4 rounds of 10 | About 1 hour | Office socials, team building, clubs |
| Classic pub quiz | 6 rounds of 10 | About 2 hours with breaks | Bars, weekly quiz nights, parties |
| Fundraiser quiz | 8 rounds of 10 | 2.5–3 hours with a break | School, charity and community events |
Keep scoring simple. Half points for a partly right answer, such as a surname only, are a common house rule.
Each team picks one round before the quiz starts to score double points. It adds strategy without extra work.
Accept answers that are clearly right but misspelled. Decide this before you start and tell every team.
Ask teams to keep phones face down. Anyone caught searching loses the round.
Announce it at the start. It saves long arguments over close answers.
A round of logos, flags or song intros breaks up spoken questions and gives different players a chance to shine.
