Pub quiz
in Deventer
With three or four teams, a quiz night is more intimate than in a packed room. That asks for a different role from the quizmaster. From €195 for the group.
A pub quiz with three or four teams
For a pub quiz in Deventer a small group is enough: a group of friends, a team from an office or a club with a regular core. A pub quiz with fifteen to thirty people runs differently from an evening with eighty. With three or four teams every table knows the others, and the quizmaster is right on top of things. That's an advantage, because he can chat with the tables, ask for an answer to be explained and let a debate over a disputed answer build up. The risk is that one team gets so far ahead after a few rounds that the rest give up, because there's no middle group to fill the gap.
That's why we keep the scores close with rounds that count for more as the evening goes on. Deventer is about an hour's drive from our workshop in Enschede, so the journey is no problem. A café with a private room, a clubhouse or a meeting room is plenty big enough. From you we need the number of people, a view of a screen and power. We'll bring a screen and sound if you don't have them.
What makes a small group different
- The quizmaster can talk to every table
- Disputed answers become part of the evening
- Without a middle group, falling behind is more noticeable
How we handle that
- Rounds that count for more later in the evening
- Teams of four to six, so there are three or more
- A final round in which the scores can still turn around
Frequently asked questions
What's the minimum number of people for a pub quiz?
From about fifteen participants, split over three or four teams, a quiz night gets going properly. It can be done with fewer people, but then it becomes two teams and a different format often suits better.
Doesn't a small quiz get boring quickly?
A small quiz is actually livelier when the quizmaster is close by. He asks teams to explain their answer and turns a borderline case into a short debate. What does need attention is the scores, and we deliberately keep them close with the way we count.
Does a quiz fit in a café with a small private room?
A room for thirty people is enough. We need space for a screen that every table can see and a power socket. We adjust the sound to the room, so it doesn't get too loud in a small space.
Is a quiz for a small group cheaper?
A quiz night has a minimum of €195, even for a small group. The preparation and the evening itself cost us about the same. Above that minimum, the length and the custom rounds determine what you pay.
