Banff Nightlife – Trivia Night in the Paddock
Banff Nightlife – Trivia Night in the Paddock
Banff National Park, Alberta
Looking for something a little different to do at night-time in Banff? On Thursday nights, there are plenty of cool choices. The Legion has Bingo which is fast-paced and a lot of fun. Bruno’s on Caribou Street is always pumping with great live music on a Thursday. However, if you feel like challenging your brain – and I do mean challenging – then the Paddock (attached to the Mount Royal Hotel) is the place to go for Trivia.
After a day working the body in Banff, it's time to work the mind in the Paddock for Trivia Night.
Kicking off at 8pm, the Quiz Master (he is that good I have used capital letters) uses all sorts of tools to test the fast decreasing grey matter of the contestants brains as we drink delicious beers. Music, still images, clips from movies and traditional questions make up this quiz. It is always hard to rate a quiz on its difficulty when you finish second from last. Especially when last was a guy who left after round 2. Everybody else seemed to have the knack of it.
The Paddock as a venue is actually a great and underrated place to go in town. It has a good menu and drinks specials all the time. Whether you want to sit in the ‘oh so comfortable chairs’ and watch some live music or play a game of pool around the bar, there is a ton of things to do to keep you entertained. It is an ideal venue to rent out for private celebrations such as a birthday from Calgary for example or a staff party. The Paddock on a Thursday is the place to test your brain in Banff!
