Events

Friday 15th November, 8pm start.

The Brunswick Hotel, 199 Malmesbury Park Road, BOURNEMOUTH, BH8 8PX

Get ready for an evening packed with trivia, fun and friendly competition!  Test your knowledge on a broad range of topics –  from current events and TV, to history and everything in between. We always start with a picture quiz.  Enjoy a night of head scratching, frustration, joy and  groaning out loud!

Our quizzes are informal but competitive! We are returning to one of our favourite venues, The Brunswick Hotel. Please help planning by reserving your tickets via Eventbrite. As ever you pay on the night, but we need to ensure we don’t exceed the room limit. Teams of up to 6, entrance £5 a person. If you aren’t in a team they can be adjusted/formed on the night to ensure no one’s on their own. As ever we will have a raffle (prize donations very welcome).

Entrance

As the poster says, we will ask for a voluntary donation – £5 a person – at the entrance. After 10pm, when entrance is managed by Chaplin’s themselves this becomes an entrance fee (mainly because they have to employ door security then).

As the bands and poets are performing for free – its a music benefit in aid of Amnesty International – we don’t think £5 is unreasonable. Many people donate more than that. We do have card readers, but cash is still fine 🙂
