Taste The Night

2 formats from NZ$4,850

Give them a problem.

Smaller groups, shorter nights, actual tasks. Puzzle runs and quiz marathons for teams that want something to do together rather than something to watch.

The Quiz Marathon

Seven rounds, a host with a microphone and a live table on the screen. Written, audio and visual rounds are mixed so the night does not belong to whoever remembers the most trivia. Good for a group that wants to sit, eat and still compete.

  • 1 host and 1 scorer for 4 hours with live standings on a 75-inch screen
  • 10 team buzzers and 60 answer sheets with pencils
  • A 2-speaker system and 2 wireless microphones

On the night

How an evening in this direction runs.

These formats are capped lower on purpose. Four hours, a hosted score, and tasks that work for people who have never met as well as for a team that has sat in the same room for ten years.

  1. Teams and rules

    The host splits the room into teams of four to six and runs through scoring in under ten minutes.

  2. Rounds or stations

    Timed blocks with a visible clock. Our crew resets each station between groups.

  3. The tight middle

    Scores go on the screen. The difficulty of the last block is set by how the room is doing.

  4. Result

    A short final round, the standings and a close from the host. Prizes, if you want them, come from you.

The host and the crew come with the format. One coordinator holds the timing plan and is your single point of contact all evening.

Before you book a venue

What the room has to give us.

  • A room of at least 80 m², quiet enough for a host to be heard without shouting.
  • Tables and chairs for teams of four to six from the venue.
  • One 10 A circuit for the sound, screen and station lighting.
  • A second small room or a divided space if you want parallel stations.

Setup windows: bump-in up to 3 hours before doors, bump-out 1 to 2 hours after the finish. None of that is counted as programme time.

Worth saying plainly

No gambling in any of this.

Nothing in this direction involves a stake, a wager or a cash prize, and none of it happens online. Where an evening includes casino-style tables as an added element, those tables follow the same rules as our flagship: the chips are props that are never sold or exchanged, guests are 20+, and participation is voluntary.

Responsible entertainment rules

Questions

About this direction.

Can the group be mixed-language?

Yes. Tell us in the enquiry and the host keeps the wording plain and weights the visual tasks higher.

What if two teams are badly uneven?

The host can re-seed teams after the first round. It is a normal part of running the night.

Tell us the date and the town.

We will tell you whether we are free, which of these two formats fits your room, and what it would cost as one total.
