- Quiz Night! At Moonstone BarMOONSTONE Bar, Singapore
I'm back to hosting quiz nights, and the venue for the next one is at Moonstone Bar on Amoy Street, a short walk from Telok Ayer MRT. If you've never been to a quiz night before, here's your chance to check one out.
What can you expect? Imagine a fun pub buzzing with chatter and clinking glasses. You're at a table with friends, old or new, drinks in hand, ready for a fun quiz night. The host (me) fires off trivia questions, sparking laughter and friendly debates. Each round brings new challenges and high-fives for correct answers. During breaks, you mingle with other teams, sharing stories and snacks. The night ends with cheers for the winning team and everyone leaves with smiles, feeling a little smarter and a lot happier. It’s the perfect blend of fun, friends, and a bit of brainpower.
That was written by ChatGPT. But trust me, these are a lot of fun, as evidenced by the photo I took at a quiz night I hosted at The Working Class (RIP) last year.
Entry is free. If you already have a team of 4, feel free to contact the bar directly to book a table. If you're solo and would like to join a team, please leave your name in the comments below. I will DM you on Meetup to get your WhatsApp number, and then create a group with other solo players. You can also contact me directly at 8152 7329. For solo players, I will take care of your table booking.
See you at Quiz Night! And feel free to reach out if you have questions.
