10 pub quiz venues are available in Auckland, NZ

Auckland's pub quiz tradition runs deep in Kiwi social culture, and the city's 10 active venues show just how far it stretches, from the central city out to the North Shore, West Auckland and the eastern suburbs. Tuesday is the undisputed quiz night. Seven of the 10 venues run that evening, which makes Auckland one of the most Tuesday-concentrated trivia cities on the site. The company landscape is fragmented in the best way. Believe It Or Not Trivia runs Schapiro's Sports Bar on Victoria Street West in the CBD. The Good Hosts has Shadows Bar on Alfred Street, also in the central city. Weekly Quiz runs The Good Home Birkenhead on the North Shore for a Wednesday game, and Gee Quiz hosts at Little Creatures Hobsonville on Boundary Road, also Wednesday. The remaining six venues operate independently. Tuesday's seven-venue lineup stretches across the greater Auckland region. In the central city, Shadows Bar and Schapiro's both start at 6:30, with Hoppers Garden Bar and Freeman & Grey holding down the Ponsonby Road corridor in Grey Lynn. The Hub Milford draws the North Shore crowd in Milford, The Hangar brings West Auckland into the fold from Henderson, and The Flying Moa covers the eastern suburbs in Mount Wellington. Thursday's sole option is The Paw Bar & Eatery on Parnell Road, a more upscale pick in one of Auckland's oldest neighbourhoods. For a city this spread out, the Tuesday concentration makes planning easy: pick your suburb and there's likely a quiz within a short drive.
