Oxford's Ultimate Quiz League: Best Team Wins £300 Bar Tab

Sundays are for legends. Oxford’s Ultimate Quiz League at The Cape of Good Hope is the boldest and most creative pub quiz in town — part trivia, part wit, all fun.

Beers, Brains, Glory: Create Your Oxford Legacy

Every week, teams battle it out for glory, Polaroid fame on the Winners’ Wall, and the chance to win big bar tab prizes at the end of the season.

• In-Season (Term Time): Compete across 8 weeks. Points accumulate across the weeks. Season champions take home the £300 bar tab.
• Out-of-Season: When the League rests, the fun continues! Weekly winners score a £50 bar tab for their team.

Come hungry — The Cape’s food (with discounts during the event!) is front and centre, with pub classics and sharing plates to fuel your brainpower. Expect clever questions, fun challenges, and interactive games that keep the whole pub laughing.

Form your squad in advance (and add them to your RSVP list!) or join one on the night. All are welcome — students, locals, quiz pros, or first-timers.

If you don't have a team, we will assign you to one!
