Why a custom Christmas round beats a generic one

Festive pub nights go better when the quiz fits the season, and that includes the team names on the sheet. Printable sheets are easy to find, but a round built from your own Christmas notes is more useful, and xmas pub quiz names matter less than a round your teams enjoy.

  • Turn carol, film and tradition notes into questions the whole table can answer
  • Mix multiple-choice and true/false questions to keep every team in the game
  • Check each answer with the built-in explanation before the night
  • Export to PDF or DOCX on Plus, or to QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML on Pro
