UK Quizbowl are pleased to announce that we will be hosting the 2025 British Student Quiz Championships on Saturday 8th March. This is the biggest and most prestigious student-only academic tournament held in the UK, and the field has been decided through qualifier events held in January, as well as spaces being reserved for institutions who performed highly at BSQC 2024 and a set of wildcards chosen by UKQB.The tournament will be held across the Blackett and Huxley buildings on Imperial's South Kensington campus. The closest tube station to these buildings is Gloucester Road (around a 10 minute walk away), or teams travelling into Paddington may find it quicker to walk from there. Please aim to be in Huxley LT 340 at 9:30 for a prompt start at 10. We envisage that the tournament will not finish before 7pm, excluding finals.
