DIY TRIVIA NIGHT QUESTIONS & FAQS

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STANDARD DIY AND BIG SCREEN DIY TRIVIA?

Both Trivia Master Australia DIY formats use the same professionally structured three-round trivia system, including two 20-question rounds, a Guess Who Challenge and interactive bonus games.

Standard DIY is designed for simple printed hosting, with a host question document and Spotify-guided audio questions.

Big Screen DIY turns the same trivia format into a premium multimedia experience, using a professionally designed PowerPoint presentation with visuals and audio questions embedded directly into the presentation.

Both formats include the hosting materials, answer sheets, scorecards and guidance you need to run the event yourself, with no previous hosting experience required.
