History
Sport and Games
Science and Nature
TV and Films
Music

There are also two tie-breaker questions included that can be used in the event of two or more teams having the same score at the end of the quiz where a very difficult question is given that needs a numeric answer (e.g. In what year was sliced bread first sold?). The teams involved in the tie break can then write their answers on a blank piece of paper and hand them to you and whoever is closest wins the quiz.

While you could use all of this material on its own for your quiz, we recommend that you only use 2 or 3 of these rounds in each quiz you do and that the rest is made up of handout rounds, a few question and answer rounds on specialist subjects and/or question and answer rounds with a twist (e.g. connections rounds). You can find plenty of handout rounds and question and answer packs on this site.



Please note that the questions in this pack also appear in Weekly Quizzes 353, 354 and 355. These are complete pub quiz packs featuring a handout round, 7 question and answer rounds, plus sheets for teams to write their answers on and full instructions on how to run a successful quiz. If, however, you prefer to use your own format for your quizzes, then the questions and answers in this pack should help you compile an entertaining and challenging quiz.
