District Trivia

Each individual member of your team requires a ticket for entry. No exceptions. Tickets will be scanned via phone SquadUp QR code or PDF printout. If your teammates will be arriving at different times, ensure that each member has a unique PDF ticket (to prevent 1 ticket being scanned twice and us having to deny entry). Upon purchasing the table, you'll receive an email with the corresponding number of individual tickets.

Both nights are completely sold out. Only those with a ticket will be granted access to the venue. No exceptions.

Each purchase is for a specific table with a number of guaranteed seats. Know the exact number on your team prior to purchasing - no size exchanges. Sales are final. Upon purchasing your table, you will receive an email with individual tickets to distribute to your team. Ensure that each member of your team has a unique PDF ticket. At registration, teams will receive their Hogwarts Express ticket with their assigned table number. No hassle about finding your tables and seat the night-of!

No, tables will be assigned based on team size and order purchased. Trivia and decorations will be throughout the venue. Bars and staff are located on both levels. If you have a special request or need (such as handicap seating), please click the envelope in the upper left corner of your screen and let us know in advance.

Tables are sold based on number of seats available at the table - once that table size is sold out, they're gone. You'll have to adjust your team size accordingly on the table sizes available if you'd still like to attend.

Teams will be asked to vary their name so it's clear whose score is whose. The team that registers first will have first "dibs" at the original team name.

No. Tables are arranged specifically to maximize the number of teams that can play - they are scattered throughout the venue and cannot be rearranged or combined. Do not purchase multiple tables in an effort to combine them - limit one table per team.

There are two separate trivia events. Your ticket is only good for the corresponding date. Each event's trivia begins promptly at 8pm on Monday, October 30th and 8pm on Tuesday, October 31st. . Registration begins at 6:30pm. VIP Happy Hour starts at 5:30pm. To skip the registration lines, and enjoy pre-event specials, add on the Happy Hour option to your ticket!

Venue and table layout will be the same, but the trivia content (questions, bonus rounds, etc) will be different. You are more than welcome to attend both events, however you must have a ticket purchased for each date. BOTH events will be offering up a $1000 cash prize.

The School of Witscraft & Triviary exams will be held at Penn Social in DC. Penn Social is a 21+ establishment, no exceptions. The event will encompass the entire venue - both the lower and upper floors, with bars (butterbeer and firewhiskey, anyone?!) open on each level. Staff, decorations and specials will be throughout the entire venue.

Unfortunately, no. Penn Social is a 21+ establishment, no exceptions.

Absolutely! Penn Social aka the Leaky Cauldron will have specialty themed drinks, their usual awesome selection of cocktails & drafts, plus a delicious food menu. Please eat, drink, be merry and take care of the staff.

Maximum team size is 10 people. Tickets are available based on the table size. Individual tickets cannot be added or refunded. Know your team size before you purchase.

The VIP Happy Hour ticket grants early access - you can enter at 5:30pm. You'll skip the registration line and enjoy happy hour drink specials prior to the event. VIP Happy Hour tickets are only $5 per person. Limited number, so get your team's early. Regular table individual ticket required for happy hour entry.

Yes, registration will have staff for a half hour after the event start time (8pm) and you will be escorted to your team's table. After that time, you will wait at the entrance and checked in at the end of the current round.

YES! There are prizes for top individual, duos and team costumes.

Cages (containers) to hold cell phones will be provided. However, teams may get creative and bring their own. Costumes are highly encouraged. District Trivia will provide quills and exam sheets.

Below are the prizes for Harry Potter trivia. There will also be both an individual and group costume contest - prizes include a round of butterbeer, prop replicas (like Gringotts coins) and more! We'll also have raffle prizes throughout the evening, so if you are out of top contention, you'll still have chances to win! Both the 30th and 31st will be offering these prizes (yes, that's over $2000 to be won!)

• 1st Place: $1000 cash
• 2nd Place: $100 Penn Social gift card
• 3rd Place: $50 Penn Social gift card

Trivia will follow District Trivia's regular format. Obviously all questions will be based in the Wizarding World - books, movies, supplemental texts and general canon are fair game. We've done our research - the questions will be challenging and strict anti-cheating spells will be placed around the venue. The questions will be completely different than last year, so those returning for year 2 do not have any advantage.

In addition to anti-cheating spells, staff will be monitoring the room while questions are being asked. All team's cell phones must be placed in their "cage" (a container) at the start of each round and remain there until the host announces teams are clear to use their phones. There is a zero tolerance policy for cheating - teams suspected will be escorted from the premises and no refunds will be given. Tables cannot be combined and teams cannot help other teams.

No, regular trivia is cancelled for Harry Potter Trivia. Points accumulated at Harry Potter trivia do not count for the leader board or tournament qualifying.

The questions will be "Hermione"-level. You don't need to study, but the questions will be difficult and occasionally obscure. We guarantee you'll get some questions correct, but it's up to your team how badly you want to win that $1000 cash prize. When "studying" means rereading and rewatching Harry Potter, who can complain? Also, there's no need to stress about not being an expert. There will be raffle prizes to be won throughout the whole evening.

Click the envelope in the upper left corner and select "Harry Potter Trivia" from the drop down menu. Our staff will respond as soon as possible.
