Happy October you Quirk Enthusiasts! This month, we're not just here to tell you about events in Chicago, but also in... wait for it... Milwaukee! But first, let's talk holiday parties.

It's Time to Start Thinking about Your Holiday Party. No, Seriously, It Is

We realize there's nothing that sounds more sales-y than a company telling you "act now, because the bookings are pouring in," but... you should act now, because the bookings are pouring in. The phones are ringing off the hook (okay fine, the emails are filling the inbox) with people booking their December holiday party even though it's still a couple of months away, and we'd love to be a part of your event too.

We can bring a trivia game, a Feud Night, a Music Bingo or a Board Game Mixer to your event. And if you'd like to make it holiday-themed, we've got holiday versions of the first three of those events, from holiday questions to holiday music, all celebrating the entire spectrum of December festivities.

As always, we offer events in person, on zoom and in a hybrid format that blends the too. Obviously, we're available here in Chicago, but you can also hire us to come to you anywhere in New England, as well as New York, New Jersey, Milwaukee, and Los Angeles. To chat with someone from our team about your holiday party (or any other private event), email us at events@quirkevents.com.

Take Our Feud Survey

One of our favorite games is one we have not yet unleashed on Chicago. It's called Feud Night and it blends trivia with Family Feud. Every couple of months we ask 100 people a whole bunch of questions from what they hate most about flying in planes to "what's one job the Hulk probably shouldn't work?" If you'd like to be one of those 100 people, we'd love it if you'd...
