Why build your own pub quiz instead of printing a generic one

Hosting a quiz night at the local? Generic printed sheets often repeat questions your regulars have already seen, and they rarely match the topics you want. Building a pub quiz with answers UK from your own notes keeps the round fresh and the answers accurate.

  • Write rounds around the topics your team actually knows, from football to UK geography.
  • Include a one-line explanation with each answer so disputes are easy to settle.
  • Mix multiple-choice and true/false questions to keep the pace moving between rounds.
  • Check the full set in the browser before the night, then export when you need a printable version.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions make a good pub quiz round?

Many UK quizzes run rounds of 8 to 10 questions, so a full night often has four to six rounds. Adjust the count to fit your evening and how long your regulars want to play.

How do I make trivia questions harder without making them unfair?

Start each round with one or two easier questions, then add harder ones that have a clear, checkable answer. Avoid questions that depend on obscure wording, since those cause arguments at the bar.

Can I export the quiz with answers?

Yes, but exports are paid features. PDF and DOCX export are included in Plus at $39/year or $7.99/month, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro at $14.99/month.

Do I need a credit card to try it?

No. The free plan includes 3 generations per month and studying in the browser, and no credit card is needed to start.
