Quiz – Paddies Wednesday Night Pub Quiz
Test your knowledge at what Paddy O’Shea’s says is the oldest English-language pub quiz in Beijing, going strong since 2008! Gather your team for six rounds of interactive questions, including pictures, videos, and music. See if you can make it past the wipe-out round and get gifts and freebies while you’re at it. What’s more, the second to last team gets rewarded, too, so losing ain’t all that bad if your team lands there.
Paddy O’Shea’s Wednesday Pub Quiz takes place every Wednesday from 8pm at Paddy O’Shea’s. Entry is free, but it’s recommended to reserve a spot in advance. Scan the QR code in the poster to find out more.
