Pubquiz at Brewdog Kungsholmen is usually a hosted team quiz where you answer round by round and submit answers on paper or digitally. Expect a fast pace, often with short answer times and 6-8 rounds including picture or sound elements.

Arrive in good time to get a seat where everyone in the team can hear the reading and see any picture questions. Have a pen ready if it's a paper answer, or a charged mobile phone if the answers are sent in.

Common rules are not to shout out answers and to avoid mobile phone use unless it is needed for submission. If you are unsure, ask the quiz host before starting to avoid misunderstandings.

Prepare a short and clear team name, as it is often read out during results.

You can normally expect broad and accessible questions with a mix of general knowledge, music, film/TV, sport and sometimes either/or rounds. The level of difficulty tends to be easy to medium, with the occasional more difficult question that can break the tie at the top.

The format can include a picture round, sound clips, true/false and a final question where you have to take a chance. This allows different types of knowledge to pay off, even if the team is not experts on a single topic.

If you have a person who is strong on music intros or film quotes, it might be a good idea to let that person take the lead in those particular rounds. For smoother performance: write down guesses quickly and choose an answer in time, as time windows are often short.

It is safest to assume that table bookings may be needed, especially if there are a lot of you or you want to sit together. Quiz nights can be event-driven and pressures vary, so spontaneous seating may run out even if the bar is open.

If you are a larger group, contact the venue in advance and tell them how many of you there are, if you want to sit together and if you need extra table space for answers. Also ask for a place where you can hear well, especially if there are sound rounds.

If you do come without a reservation, arrive early, be prepared to split into two tables and ask the staff if you can move together when things calm down. Avoid placing extra chairs in aisles, as this can disrupt both service and accessibility.

Many pub quizzes are free, but sometimes there is a small fee per team, so check the conditions for that particular evening. The fee may be linked to prizes, charity or administration, and it's good to know before you put your team together.

Prizes vary, but common prizes are gift cards, bar-related prizes or smaller giveaways. Sometimes a tie-breaker determines placements, so it can pay to stay focused even if you're just behind.

When you arrive, ask how the submission and scoring process works, especially if it is digital. To avoid misunderstandings, ask about mobile phone rules, as some quizzes allow mobile phones only for submitting answers.

Please also bear in mind that prizes may be shared between team members, so please decide in advance what you will do if you win.

A team size of 2-6 people usually works best, as many quizzes have an upper limit to keep the competition fair. Too many people will also make it harder to have a quick discussion when the response time is short.

If you are more than the maximum limit, it is often better to split into two teams and compete against each other. Choose team names that are clear and different, so that the results are not mixed up when read out.

To ensure smooth co-operation: designate one person to write or submit responses, and one person to keep track of time. For audio and visual rounds, it can be smart to have the person who hears/sees best sit closest to the source.

If someone in the team needs a slower pace or clearer structure, agree that everyone can speak for 10-15 seconds before locking the answer.

The most important thing is to arrive on time and have what you need to submit answers, usually pen and paper or a charged mobile phone. Also prepare by deciding who is responsible for writing, so that you don't lose time in the middle of the rounds.

A simple packing list could be:
- Pen (preferably two, in case one is lost)
- Charged mobile phone and possibly powerbank if the quiz is digital
- Glasses if someone needs to read small texts on answer sheets or slides

Plan your orders between rounds, as 6-8 rounds often provide natural breaks. If you want to eat, order early so that the food does not clash with the reading.

If you are new: ask before the start about mobile rules, check-in and whether there are sound rounds, so you can choose the seating and layout that suits the team.

Sound levels may vary, but during quizzes it is particularly important to be able to hear the reading and any sound clips. The most practical measure is to arrive early and ask for a seat near the quiz host or speakers, but without sitting in the middle of a serving line.

If you are hard of hearing: ask if it is possible to have questions displayed on screen, have them repeated, or if the team can sit where the acoustics are quieter. In audio rounds, small differences in seating can make a big difference.

If you are sensitive to noise: choose a location further away from the bar and the entrance where there is often more movement. Bring discreet earplugs that reduce background noise but still allow speech to come through.

As a team, you can also agree to speak in a low voice during the reading, so that everyone can follow without stress.

The safest plan is to contact the venue in advance and ask about step-free entrance, thresholds, width of passages and accessible toilets, as accessibility can be affected by furniture and the pressure of the evening. Ask for a table location with plenty of room to manoeuvre and without narrow aisles.

On quiz nights, tables may be more closely spaced, so please arrive early and ask staff to help you position yourselves so that you don't have to move chairs afterwards. This reduces the risk of blocking aisles.

Good questions to ask when booking:
- Is there a ramp or a completely flat entrance?
- Is there a toilet available and where is it located?
- Can you reserve a seat with extra space at the table?

If you use mobility aids: ask for a place where you can easily get to the bar, toilet and exit without having to squeeze past other guests.

If you need larger text, better lighting or extra clarity on what to fill in, ask staff for help straight away. Many problems can be solved practically by choosing a location with more even light and less glare, especially if there are picture rounds.

If the quiz uses paper forms, ask the team to write in clear capitals and use a dark pen. For digital submission: increase the text size on your mobile phone and switch off automatic screen dimming so that time is not wasted on technical hassles.

For menus you can:
- Ask for menu items to be read out
- Ask for allergen information verbally if the text is difficult to read
- Photograph the menu and zoom in at your own pace

If you have difficulty seeing rounds from a distance: try to get a seat with a clear view, or ask for the team to see the image more closely between rounds if it is possible without disturbing them.

Assume that the bar is open in the afternoon and evening on weekdays and longer on weekends, but always plan according to the quiz start time rather than a general opening time. Ideally, arrive 30-60 minutes before the start of the quiz to have time to find your seat, order and prepare your team.

For a smooth evening: decide on a clear meeting time and a contact person in case someone is late. If you want to eat, place your order early so that serving does not clash with the rounds.

Plan your return journey before you start:
- Check when the last round usually ends and add a buffer for prize distribution
- If someone needs a quieter exit, choose a place near the exit
- Have a plan for outerwear and payment so you don't get stuck when there is a queue

If you want to double-check times or make a booking, it is useful to call or email in advance so that you can be informed about the arrangements for that particular evening.
