🧠 Quiz Night: Five Rounds, One Team, Endless Bragging Rights! 🎉

Think you’ve got the brains to beat the rest? Grab your smartest (or funniest) mates and join us for a night of trivia, teamwork, and top-tier chaos at our SU Quiz Night!

You’ll take on five exciting rounds of questions covering all sorts – from general knowledge and pop culture to the wonderfully random. Teams of up to five will battle it out for the glory of being crowned quiz champs… and of course, there are mystery prizes up for grabs for the winning team!

Whether you’re in it to win it or just here for the laughs and vibes, this is the perfect way to spend your evening with friends, meet new people, and test your trivia skills.

🍻 This is a BYOC event! (bring your own can)
You’re welcome to bring your own beers, ciders or other drinks – just no glass bottles or other containers allowed (Max of 4 cans each allowed). If you bring drinks in glass or anything other than a can, they’ll be safely held by staff and returned to you at the end of the night. Cans are all good to go!

The quiz waits for no one – arrive on time or prepare to spectate!
