Writing a Kilkenny pub quiz from your own material

Most ready-made quiz sheets online are generic, so a pub quiz in Kilkenny works better when the questions come from local facts you have gathered yourself. DeckOwl does not list pubs or quiz nights, and it does not come with a bank of Kilkenny questions. It turns the material you upload into a quiz.

  • Use a mix of local history, landmarks and sport so no single round dominates.
  • Check every generated answer against your source before quiz night.
  • Save the explanations for the answer reveal, when a team wants to challenge a result.
  • Keep a printed copy of the answer sheet with the host, in case of disputes.

Multiple choice, true/false and open questions

Each question comes with an explanation, so you can check answers and settle arguments at the bar.

Built from your own material

Upload PDFs, slides, DOCX files, plain notes or photos of pages, and the questions follow what is in them.

Export when you are ready

Plus includes PDF and DOCX export. Pro adds QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML for teachers who run quizzes in a learning platform.

How it works

Upload your trivia notes

Add a PDF, slide deck, DOCX file or plain text list of Kilkenny facts. Photos of printed pages are read with text recognition.

Pick your question types

Choose multiple choice, true/false or open questions, then generate a set you can review before the night.

Check and run the quiz

Read the explanations, remove anything shaky, and export to PDF or DOCX on Plus if you want a printed round sheet.

Start with a short document covering the castle, the cathedral, the river Nore, local sport and brewing history. Upload it as a PDF, DOCX or plain notes, and the generator writes multiple-choice, true/false or open questions with an explanation for each answer. Review every item before you read it aloud, because a fact that is wrong in your notes will be wrong in the quiz too.

Keep rounds balanced by mixing easy and hard questions across topics, and put a few true/false items between the harder ones. The free plan lets you study the set in the browser, while Plus adds PDF and DOCX export for printing.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of trivia questions work well for a Kilkenny pub quiz?

Short factual questions about landmarks, history, local sport and famous people tend to work well. Mix in a few true/false items, and check each fact against a reliable source.

How many questions should each round of a pub quiz have?

Many hosts run rounds of about eight to twelve questions, but the right number depends on the venue, the crowd and how long you want the night to last.

Can I export my Kilkenny quiz to Word or PDF?

Yes, on the Plus plan, which includes PDF and DOCX export. The free plan lets you study generated questions in the browser without exports.

Does DeckOwl list Kilkenny pub quiz nights?

No. DeckOwl only creates quizzes from material you upload, so you will need your own trivia notes, slides or documents to start.
