About this Event
We're teaming up with Berkeleyside to bring you not one but two Literary Pub Trivia nights in 2026! Join us February 23 and/or July 27 for all-new questions, fantastic music, and our beloved celebrity host: writer, LGBTQ+ advocate, and 40-time Jeopardy! champion Amy Schneider! Purchase tickets for either night, or sign up for both and save 20%!
Co-presented by , each night will feature all-new challenging questions on everything from A.A. Milne to World War Z—plus special questions on Bay Area literary lore.
Ticket proceeds will support the Litquake Foundation.
Form a team with up to six players (or we'll match you up with some other Dickensian Orphans if you're coming solo), and compete for prizes from Litquake, Berkeleyside, and our partners—prize listings coming soon!
Prize packages will be awarded to the three highest-scoring teams, as well as the team with the best team name. Food and beverages will be available for purchase from Gilman Brewing.
Arrive starting at 6pm to settle in and order food and drinks; the game will start promptly at 6:30.

About Berkeleyside
is a groundbreaking nonprofit digital news platform in Berkeley, California, reporting on Berkeley and the East Bay. It was founded in October 2009 by journalists Frances Dinkelspiel, Tracey Taylor and Lance Knobel. In collaboration with new partners and leaders, they launched the Cityside Journalism Initiative to bring more great local journalism to the Bay Area. Berkeleyside has been joined by Nosh, providing news about the East Bay’s dynamic food scene, and The Oaklandside, which launched during the pandemic lockdown in June 2020 to serve Oaklanders. Together, those outlets reach more than 500,000 people in the East Bay every month. Richmondside, our third newsroom, launched in June 2024.
