About this Experience
What you'll do:
Ryan Budds brings a fully customized trivia show to your home, office, or venue, complete with live hosting, a real sound system, and rounds built around your group.
Pick your topics – Tell Ryan what your group loves, and he'll build rounds around it, from pop culture and sports to company inside jokes and guest-of-honor trivia.
Play as a team – Break into groups and compete across five rounds of trivia, with bonus questions that can be tailored to your occasion or company.
Try more than trivia – Switch it up with bingo, a Wheel-style game show, a Feud Showdown round, karaoke, or DJ sets between rounds.
Win prizes – Ryan keeps energy high with mini games and prize moments woven throughout the show, so guests stay engaged from the first question to the last.
Cheer at the end – Every event wraps with a moment that brings the whole room together, whether that's a showdown or a group sing-along.
By the time the last round wraps, your guests won't be checking their phones; they'll be asking when you're doing it again.
Why we love it for your party:
Full customization – Ryan builds every show around your group, so it never feels like an off-the-shelf event.
