Why build your own pub quiz round

Hosting a pub quiz in Hastings works best when the questions suit your regulars, from local history to general knowledge. DeckOwl does not publish ready-made quizzes or venue listings, so the starting point is your own material: a list of facts, a set of slides or a page of notes you have written.

Upload notes, slides or photos of a printed trivia sheet
Mix multiple-choice, true/false and short-answer questions
Read the explanation for every answer before the round starts

Example general knowledge trivia questions for a pub quiz

In which year was the Battle of Hastings fought?1066. William of Normandy defeated King Harold II's army, and the battle was fought near modern Battle, about 6 miles northwest of Hastings.

Which embroidered cloth depicts the Norman conquest of England, including the Battle of Hastings?The Bayeux Tapestry. It is actually an embroidery, about 70 metres long, so it is not woven like a true tapestry.

Which is the largest planet in the Solar System?Jupiter. Its mass is more than twice that of all the other planets combined.

What is the capital city of Australia?Canberra. It was chosen as a compromise between Sydney and Melbourne, which are both larger.

Which element has the chemical symbol Fe?Iron. The symbol comes from its Latin name, ferrum.

How it works

Export and run the round

Download a PDF or DOCX to print, or keep studying in the browser.

Once the material is uploaded, the generator writes questions with one correct answer and an explanation for each. You can mix question types in one round, which helps when you want a few quick true/false starters before harder multiple-choice items.

Check each question before the night. Remove anything that depends on an obscure fact nobody could reasonably know, and make sure each wrong option is plausible.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Many pub quiz rounds use 10 to 15 questions, but this is a convention rather than a rule. Match the length to how long you want the round to take.

How do I write good general knowledge trivia questions?

Give each question one clearly correct answer and plausible wrong options. Avoid questions that hinge on a single obscure fact, and test the round on someone before the night.

PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month. QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro at $14.99/month, and the Free plan lets you study in the browser with no exports.
