Why Game Nights Matter
Before we introduce our Singo, Music Match, Live Trivia, and Pub Poll, let’s talk about why “game nights” have become a staple in local nightlife.
- Easy on the Budget: Many of these events are free to play, making them a fantastic option for affordable entertainment.
- Social Connection: In a world dominated by screens, there’s nothing better than real-world interaction. Game nights foster conversation, teamwork, and laughter—perfect whether you’re catching up with old friends or making new ones.
- Break from Routine: We all get stuck in ruts. Game nights offer a refreshing way to shake off work stress and enjoy something different midweek or over the weekend.
- Local Support: Each venue hosting Challenge Entertainment events is locally owned and operated—meaning you get to support businesses that are part of your community.

Introducing the Games
1. Singo: Music Bingo With a Twist
What It Is: Think of Singo as a fusion of classic bingo and a DJ set of your favorite hits. Instead of numbers, you mark off song titles on your bingo card as they play. Hear a snippet of Queen? Mark that space. Think you’ve got a winning pattern? Shout “Singo!” and claim your prize!
Why You’ll Love It:
- No obscure trivia knowledge required—just a love for catchy tunes.
- Get to enjoy a wide range of music, from classic rock to country and today’s top hits.
- The atmosphere is lighthearted and communal—everyone’s grooving along together.
2. Music Match: For the Dedicated Music Buff
What It Is: Music Match is live trivia, but all about music. We’ll quiz you on lyrics, bands, album covers, and even famous movie soundtracks. Whether you’re an 80s pop fanatic or a modern hip-hop enthusiast, every type of music lover has a shot at the top prize.
Why You’ll Love It:
- You get to show off your deep musical knowledge—from hidden gems to iconic chart-toppers.
- The variety of rounds keeps the night interesting, sometimes throwing in theme-based games or extra challenges.
- Perfect for people who can name that tune in the first three chords.
3. Live Trivia: The Classic Favorite
What It Is: Nothing beats the thrill of Live Trivia. You’ll form teams (or go solo) and answer questions on anything from history and sports to pop culture and science. Rack your brain, confer with teammates, and see if you’ve got what it takes to rank top in the leaderboard.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Variety is king—expect fresh categories and new questions every time.
- Perfectly balances challenge and accessibility, so it’s fun for both trivia aficionados and newbies.
- A high-energy host keeps the momentum going, ensuring you never experience a dull moment.
4. Pub Poll: Survey Says…
What It Is: Inspired by the classic TV game show “Family Feud,” Pub Poll asks contestants to guess the most popular responses to fun, everyday questions. Instead of factual correctness, you’re banking on the collective mindset of an average group of people.
Why You’ll Love It:
- Hilarious debates ensue as you and your team try to think like the “survey.”
- Strategy, logic, and a dash of comedic timing all come into play.
- If you like the thrill of “fast money rounds” or big reveals, Pub Poll will be your new favorite.

- Stay Hydrated & Fed: Don’t let hunger distract you from a key question. Grab a slice of pizza, a taco, or some BBQ. Pair it with a local brew or soda of your choice to keep energy levels high.
- Study Up (If You Want): For trivia nights, staying up-to-date on current events, pop culture, and random facts can help. For Singo or Music Match, you might brush up on your Spotify playlists. But remember—these games are designed for all skill levels, so don’t stress too much!
- Embrace the Fun: Game nights are about enjoying good times with friends. Win or lose, laugh it off and soak in the atmosphere.

Find a Game That's Right for You and Your Team
Live Trivia nights at a pub near you are a great way for friends, family and coworkers to work together, tackle some tough questions and win prizes! Live Trivia is always free to play, and sometimes it even pays to be a know-it-all, so gather up your full-of-random-information friends and find a Live Trivia game night near you.
With SINGO Music Bingo, instead of listening for numbers to be called, you’re listening to your favorite music and matching the tunes to your SINGO game card. Go ahead and sing along! SINGO is fun for everyone, and if you can’t remember the song title, just ask your neighbor.
With Pub Poll, you’re rewarded for knowing what the most popular answer is, not necessarily what the correct answer is! Every week, players from around the country are surveyed and their answers are compiled for a six-round game. Go ahead and cheat all you like. Use your phone, consult Google, call your mom … Pub Poll isn’t about what you know, it’s about what you think others know.
Grab your Bingo cards and hold on to your hat; you’re in for a wild ride. Ballistic Bingo pairs traditional Bingo with spontaneous activities featuring anything from bar limbo and trash-can basketball to picture drawing, dart throwing, scavenger hunting, the newlywed/friend game or anything else your host can think of!
Music Match is a one of a kind trivia game that combines elements of all your favorite musical genres. Our Jockeys will get the crowd going as they play music that everyone will love...but there's a catch! Each song will only be played for a moment as your guests do their best to remember the details about those hits. This team based game will have guests working together and jamming out at the same time.
