Wednesday 7:30pm
Wednesday nights in Balmain would have to be the most competitive scene of trivia in Sydney with 4 pubs in walking distance to each other all offering up a trivia night. The reason cancellation of the Exchange Hotel's trivia and the expected cancellation of the one at Unity Hall Hotel may well mean that the Royal Oak Hotel will soon have it pretty much to themselves. The Royal Oak Hotel trivia is run by Innquizitive, and pulls a crowd which fills out the smallish room at the front of the pub, approximately 10 to 15 teams. The crowd is definitely middle age, and consequently the trivia competition can be quite tough.
Innquizitive trivia provides a very professional looking operation with all questions being screened on the big screen with associated audiovisual components and all answers being denoted in a professionally printed answer book of which a page is teared and returned each round. Innquizitive trivia is suited to those who like their trivia long and slow, as the company produces approximately 50 questions split up in five rounds. This combined with the marking of the answer books five different times can mean that their nights drag out over the 3 hour mark. Also it is important to get in early in some venues to ensure you have vision of a television as constantly getting up to check the screen can get annoying.
