Before or after dinner changes the quiz

Where the quiz falls in the evening decides how it should be built, and that's almost always skipped when planning. Before dinner everyone is sharp, but the kitchen sets a hard limit on the time. A compact set-up of four rounds with a fast pace works then. After dinner there's more time and attention is looser, and then the quiz can run longer, but the rounds need to be shorter and lighter. If the quiz runs between courses, we build it in blocks that fit between two plates.

What we need to know from you is the timeline of the evening: what time dinner is, how long it takes and whether drinks follow. On that basis we choose the length and the structure. We set up well before the first guests arrive, so it doesn't become part of the evening, and we take everything down ourselves afterwards. Beyond that, a room with a view of the screen and a power socket is enough.

Frequently asked questions

Can the quiz carry on while dinner is being served?

We advise against carrying on while the food is being served, because then the quizmaster competes with the staff and loses. We put the quiz in blocks between the courses, with a break when the plates come.

What if the evening runs over and there's less time left?

Running over happens often, and the set-up is built for it. We keep two rounds in reserve that can be dropped without the build-up to the end falling apart, and that decision is made during the evening without the room noticing.

Can people join late without being out of the running?

Joining later is possible if we know beforehand. We put the latecomers together in a team that starts on the average score, so they don't begin with a deficit they could never make up anyway.

Do we pay per person or per evening?

We charge per evening and not per head. A group of fifteen therefore pays the same as a group of forty, with €195 as the lowest rate. If a large group needs extra equipment, it appears as a separate line in the quote.
