Quiz Night at the Beacon
2023-04-01 18:30 - 23:00 (Europe/London) | Gorebridge Beacon
Come and join us for Quiz Night at the Beacon! Nothing like having it on April Fools Day. We promise this is genuine.
This is a fundraising event for the Gorebridge Beacon and the Gorebridge Community Garden.
£12 per ticket. No more than 6 on a team. Ticket price includes your dinner (Beacon Chilli/Nachos and desert dessert!). We promise it will be a cheesy affair.
As we are nice peeps here’s your 1st question, ‘where did Nachos originate from?’ and 2nd, best joke of the evening wins a prize!
BYOB.
