Quiz of Quizzes

THE quiz for enthusiasts

Our Harpenden Quiz of Quizzes, an ever-popular event staged in St George’s School hall on a Friday evening in March, regularly attracts 30 or more teams of six people.

As well as giving some 200 quiz enthusiasts an entertaining evening it allows us, through the bar and a raffle, to raise funds for charity. Since the first Quiz of Quizzes was staged in 1996 more than £60,000 has been raised.
