Questions will cover a range of topics including general knowledge, pop culture, history, music, and more. A great way to gather with your neighbors, win prizes, and compete for the title of Lewisboro Library Trivia Champions!
The best way to reserve seating is to form your team and then have a team captain purchase seats for the group. Knowing the number on each team will help us in setting up the venue before everyone arrives. Of course, individual players are also welcome, and we’ll do our best to pair you with another team. Please Note: If you have a team of six, book early – the space can only accommodate two tables of six players. The rest of the seating is for teams of four or less.
Trivia Dates:
Thursday, April 10 (tables of six are sold out)
Thursday, May 15
Reserved seats are $25 per player per trivia night. Reserve seats for one or both Trivia Nights! A reduced Pub Menu and cash bar will also be available. We recommend teams arrive early to beat the rush and place their food/drink orders before the games begin at 7 pm!
