Why a custom set beats a downloaded sheet

A printable sheet of pub quiz questions 2025 PDF is the quickest way to fill a round, but a sheet written for everyone rarely fits your crowd. Questions that are too easy or too obscure can stall the whole evening.

  • Write questions that match your venue's difficulty, not a generic level
  • Mix multiple choice and true/false to keep scoring quick at the bar
  • Read each explanation before the round so you can answer challenges
  • Keep one set per theme, such as geography, science or music

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should a pub quiz round have?

Most quizzes use between 10 and 15 questions per round, split into themed rounds of about five. Shorter rounds keep the room engaged, and a mix of easy and hard questions keeps scores close.

What makes a good general knowledge trivia question?

A good question has one clearly correct answer that most players can check after the round. Avoid questions that depend on a single obscure detail, and write distractors that are plausible but clearly wrong.

Can I export the questions to PDF?

PDF export is available on the Plus plan at $39/year or $7.99/month, which also includes unlimited generations and DOCX, Anki and CSV export. The free plan lets you study in the browser with 3 generations per month.

Do I need a credit card to start?

No. You can start on the free plan without a credit card, and students get 40% off Plus with a school email.
