The challenges facing quiz rooms

  • Every room runs teams back to back

    One session ends, the next begins. Without a gap in the schedule, the 6pm delay is still there at 11pm, and it apologises badly to the fifth team.

  • The team capacity is strict

    Two to eight players, not nine. It is a constraint of the game as much as of safety, and it belongs at booking, not at reception.

  • Saturday night is worth double Tuesday

    All the takings rest on a few slots. A team that does not come at 9pm on a Saturday is the best session of the week gone.

  • Two rooms, one 8pm slot

    The board at reception sometimes says the opposite of reality, and two teams end up outside the same door.

  • The phone rings during a session

    You do not leave a team mid-session. What books itself online in the meantime is not lost.

Practical guide: Quiz rooms

  1. Each room is a resource: the same hour never gets sold twice.
  2. Ten minutes of buffer after each session for the reset. It is not comfort, it is what holds the evening together.
  3. A minimum and maximum capacity per room. A team of nine must not be able to confirm.
  4. A deposit on weekend and evening slots. Those are the ones that cannot be replaced.
  5. A reminder the night before with the recommended arrival time — ten minutes before the session starts.
  6. A "number of players and ages" field: the host tunes the difficulty before the team walks in.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a quiz room session cost in the UK?

Around £18 to £30 per person for a sixty to ninety minute session, with private hire and corporate rates higher. Set your own prices.

What obligations does a venue open to the public have?

Three, and the first is the one enforcement notices are served on. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 you must carry out and record a fire risk assessment, keep escape routes usable at all times, provide emergency lighting and signage, and set a maximum occupancy — a room whose door cannot be opened from inside is not defensible whatever the game requires. Second, the Equality Act 2010 requires reasonable adjustments for disabled customers, which means thinking about access and about how you say what a room can accommodate. Third, if you serve alcohol you need a premises licence under the Licensing Act 2003, and any music needs TheMusicLicence.

How do I stop two teams booking the same room?

By declaring each room as a resource.

Can I set a minimum and maximum number of players?

Yes, per room.

How do I allow for the reset between teams?

With buffer time after each session.

Can I ask for a deposit only at weekends?

Yes, on the services and windows you choose.
