Trivia in Santa Monica California

8 trivia venues are available in Santa Monica, CA

Santa Monica's trivia is almost entirely independent. Seven of its eight venues run their own shows, which gives the whole thing a personality that matches the city's beach-town-meets-urban feel. Eight active spots spread across six different nights, so there's nearly always something on, even if you'll never find more than three options on a single evening. Wednesday is the biggest night with three venues. Ye Olde King's Head on Santa Monica Boulevard brings genuine British pub quiz energy at 7:30, Weary Livers on Pico Boulevard starts at 7:00, and O'Briens Irish Pub on Wilshire goes at 8:00. King Trivia's sole outpost is The Bungalow on Wilshire Boulevard, the beachfront lounge with Pacific views, for Thursday at 7:00. Every other night has one option apiece: The Daily Pint on Pico for Monday, SoCal Vibes Co. Surf Club on Broadway for Tuesday, TR!P on Lincoln Boulevard for a Friday game at 7:00, and Bodega Wine Bar on Broadway for a Sunday game at 6:30. The Pico Boulevard and Wilshire Boulevard corridors account for most of the action, with Broadway adding a couple more near the Third Street Promenade. In a city where the average bar can charge beachside prices and get away with it, the fact that the trivia scene stays almost entirely homegrown, no big national chains running the show, says something about the regulars who keep showing up.
