Top 5 things to look for in the Best Trivia Experience in Melbourne



If you’re on the hunt for the best trivia night in Melbourne, you’re in for a treat. Melbourne’s vibrant pub scene and its passionate love for a good quiz make it a trivia lover’s paradise - however, not all trivia nights are created equal.


Whether you’re a seasoned trivia buff or just looking for a fun night out with friends, the city offers a range of trivia events that suit every level of knowledge and friendly competitiveness.


So, what makes a trivia night stand out from the rest? Here are the top 5 things to look for when you’re planning your next trivia outing:


  1. A great host: A trivia night is only as good as its host. Look for trivia nights with lively, entertaining, professional hosts who keep the momentum going, make everyone laugh, and know how to create an inclusive atmosphere. The best hosts know how to read a crowd and ensure everyone has a blast, even if they're not winning.

  2. Challenging but fun questions: The balance between difficult and doable is key. The best trivia nights will have a variety of categories that challenge you but still give you that satisfying moment when you nail a tough question.

  3. A cozy venue: Location is everything. The ideal trivia night takes place in a venue with a comfortable atmosphere, and, of course, top-notch food and drinks. Whether it’s a pub or a restaurant, the venue should add to the experience.

  4. Exciting prizes: The thrill of competition often comes down to what’s at stake. The best trivia nights offer awesome prizes, whether it’s vouchers, or even quirky items, like a medal, that make winning feel all the more rewarding.

  5. A fun crowd: A good trivia night is made even better by the crowd. The vibe should be welcoming and lively, with teams that are competitive but also there to have a good time.


If you're looking to experience the best trivia night Melbourne has to offer, that also more than ticks all the above, you can experience it every week with Ben Sorensen's Trivia Experience at the Hofbrauhaus Melbourne, Tuesdays 7pm.



Not so frequently asked questions

Is this blog post merely a shameless plug for the best trivia night in Melbourne?

Yes! Well done on seeing through the thinly veiled facade. 10 points to Gryffindor.


Should I come along anyway to experience this evening of wit, questions, and fun?

Yes, you definitely should come along as an escape from a comparatively boring life.


Is Ben Sorensen's Trivia Experience at the Hofbrauhaus Melbourne really the best?

Subjectively, YES, and objectively, YES. It is without a doubt the best trivia night at the Hofbrauhaus in Melbourne, it may also be the only trivia night at the Hofbrauhaus in Melbourne, but that still counts.


Is there a Facebook event for this Trivia night?

Great question, yes there is, and its HERE.


Can you help with my fundraising event?

Sure! Sounds fun... Ben Sorensen is available as a MC / Host, and can he bring the super fun Trivia Experience with him. Find more information HERE.


I'm a killjoy who is easily offended by anything and everything. Is this for me?

Amazing work self-assessing! No this isn't for you. Stay at home. Do not suck the life and joy out of this event. However, if you decide to come along, and decide to wreck the event for everyone else, you may* get an un-filtered, un-edited roast from Ben. We also firmly have a "no dickhead policy."


*"May" in this context means definitely.
