Towards a sociology of pub quizzes

This simple website is the beginning of a project which will explore all aspects in the study of pub quizzes. I am a sociologist and there are many questions to do with pub quizzes which I would like to explore, such as:

• • When and where were the first pub quizzes?

  • Just how popular are they, and how has this popularity changed over time?

  • Is the pub quiz a UK phenomenon? An English one? An urban one?

  • How widespread are pub quizzes internationally, and how have they been adapted for different cultural locations?
