How to Host a Christmas Advertising & Marketing Trivia Night
You do not need any special equipment. These tips work for a living room, a classroom, or a bar back room:
- Split into teams of 3 to 5. Mixed teams keep things fair and fun. Let guests pick team names from the theme for extra laughs.
- Read each question twice. Especially in a noisy room. A phone speaker or small Bluetooth speaker helps everyone hear.
- Keep score on paper. One point per correct answer. Announce standings halfway through to keep the energy up.
- Have a small prize ready. Candy, a goofy trophy, or first pick of dessert. A last-place prize keeps the mood light.
