Frequently Asked Questions

Thinking about bringing trivia to your bar, pub, or private event? Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.


What kind of events is this good for?

We have done all kinds. Weekly trivia nights in bars, corporate events and dinners, team building events, wedding socials, Christmas parties, fundraisers, and even a bar mitzvah. See our testimonials.

What exactly does Binge Thinkers provide?

We bring a professional host, all the questions and rounds, a laptop, pens, and answer sheets. Your host runs the game and keeps the room lively. You bring the crowd and, ideally, a screen. Other technical equipment can be provided upon request, such as a projector, mic, or speakers.

What does the venue need to provide?

We need a TV or projector with HDMI, space for teams, and room for your crowd. We will also help you choose simple prizes, such as a bar tab, gift card, merch, or bragging rights. Food and drinks stay in your hands.

How long does a trivia night run?

A standard night lasts about two hours, including several rounds of categories with short breaks in between. Need a different length? We can adjust.

How does booking work?

Use our contact form. Share your date, location, and crowd size. We'll confirm availability and ask some follow-up questions to help tailor the night for you and give you a quote.

Do we get to pick our host?

You don't need to choose. We assign a host who fits the night. If you have worked with us before and have a favourite, let us know.

What kind of trivia do you run?

We write and update our questions in-house. Expect some of the classics like pop culture, music, movies, sports, and excellent bar arguments. We also toss in a few creative categories we've come up with that you won't find at other trivia events. It is competitive enough to matter and relaxed enough for everyone.

Do you have themed trivia?

Yes, we have over 30 themes involving TV shows, film franchises, music, and of course, Taylor Swift.

Can we buy trivia packages for our bar to use?

Yes, we can arrange that and have provided trivia to bars in the USA, Europe, and Asia.

How is this different from running our own trivia?

We've done this for over 15 years in dozens of venues. You get a proven format, fresh questions, and a host whose only job is giving your crowd a great night.

Can we book a one-off night, or do you do recurring trivia?

Both. We run one-off private events and weekly or monthly nights for bars and pubs. We handle the game. You focus on your guests.

Do you do corporate or private events?

We can add themes, inside jokes, or custom questions. Tell us your idea on the contact form.

How many people can play?

Trivia works best in teams of 6 max. People can play solo or with a group of friends or coworkers. We have hosted crowds from 20 to more than 250. Tell us your headcount and we'll shape the game around it.

What about prizes?

You and the host coordinate prizes. A bar tab, gift card, round of drinks, or pure bragging rights all work. We will help you pick what suits the crowd.

How much does it cost?

Price depends on the crowd, date, frequency, and any custom work. Ask us for a quote and we'll keep it clear and practical.

How far in advance should we book?

A few weeks is usually enough for a one-off event. Book earlier for recurring nights or popular dates. Once you have a date in mind, ask us.

What areas do you serve?

We are based in Winnipeg, but can accommodate events all over Manitoba. We've been to Gimli, Steinbach, Oak Bank, Selkirk, Winkler, and Morden. One way or another, we will get to you!
