The pub quiz is a popular feature of British pub culture. Seriously keen players may take part in one every week, meeting with the same team of friends to pit their wits against their pub’s quiz master -and of course enjoy a drink or two along the way.

This, the third Japan Society Pub Quiz, is your chance to show everyone just how much you know, or simply to come and have fun with like-minded people. If you have never participated in a pub quiz, it’s time you found out what they are all about. If you are a past master, this is another chance to form a winning team.All team members will be asked to pay £1 on the night. The collected takings will form the prize, which will be awarded to the winning team. The more teams and more participants, the bigger the bounty!

Teams should have at least six members or thereabouts and will need to include at least one Japanese speaker. Just to make things more interesting and keep everyone on their toes, some questions will be in English and some in Japanese.

If you would like to take part, gather together a team, name it and register your team with the Japan Society on tel: 020 7828 6330 or email: events@japansociety.org.uk

If you are interested, but haven’t got a full team, please let us know. We can match you with other people to make up a six. Be warned: pub quizzes can be addictive!
