120 Trivia Questions with Answers

Sorted by category, answers hidden until you want them — the whole game in one page.

Hit draw — answer out loud, then reveal.

A full trivia night in one page

Every question here comes with its answer attached — hidden behind a tap on screen, printed underneath on paper. That means one page can run the whole night: read the question, let the table argue, reveal, keep score if you're keeping score.

Categories are sized for a real game: mix four or five of them for a balanced round, or draw at random and let luck decide. Difficulty skews friendly — these are questions people should get maybe half of, not zero.

How to host a trivia round

Five minutes of prep turns this page into a whole game night.

Pick four or five categories
A balanced round mixes general knowledge with one or two specialties. Give each category a number of questions — five per category is a solid hour with scoring.
Read, pause, reveal
Read the question twice, let the teams write or shout answers, then tap to reveal. The pause is where the arguing — the actual fun — happens. Don't rush it.
Score simply
One point per correct answer is fine. If you want stakes: double points on the final question and let teams bet whatever they've earned.
Draw for the tiebreaker
Tied teams face one drawn question, closest answer wins. Draw also works mid-game when you need an extra question for a specific category.
