Christmas Movie Trivia Booking
5 Dec 2024 only
Ho Ho Ho! A festive edition of our movie trivia is here. We'll be deep diving into the wondrous, the magical, the big city girl returning to her home town for a kooky holiday season with the family. Trivia will be kicking off at 6:30pm sharp, so roll on through a bit early to grab a Chrissy Cosmo, some shortbread, and decide on a very merry team name.
