The 70th Birthday Trivia Night

Turning 70 deserves more than a card. Give the party something everyone can play.

Most trivia books are built to be read quietly, alone, in small type. This one is built to be played out loud. Hand it to whoever is hosting, split the room into teams, and start reading.

  • Twenty rounds about 1956 — the year the guest of honour arrived
  • A host script, so the person running it has the words in front of them
  • Team scorecards you can photocopy or tear out
  • Large print throughout — readable across a noisy room

120 pages · large print · two teams, one host, no preparation.

Inside the Book

Hand it to the host and start reading

No preparation, no apps, no one left out because they cannot see the screen.

Twenty rounds, ready to read

Music, film, news, prices, television and the things that only somebody who was there will remember — each round written to be read aloud at a party, not studied.

A script for whoever is hosting

The words to say, when to pause, and how to score. The host does not need to have prepared anything, and does not need to be good at this.

Scorecards and a winner

Team scorecards, a running total, and a tie-break round for when it comes to that — so the evening has a shape and an ending.

How the Night Runs

Two teams, one host, an hour

  • Twenty rounds — each self-contained, so you can run five or the lot
  • Host script — read it straight off the page, no rehearsal
  • Team scorecards — tear out or photocopy, one per team
  • Tie-break round — for when two teams finish level
  • Large print — so the reader is not squinting under party lighting
Who It Is For

For the person organising the party

Written for whoever has been landed with “can you sort out something for after the cake” — an adult child, a sibling, a friend who volunteered too quickly.

It also works as the gift itself. There are free printable bonus rounds and a scorecard pack on this site, so you can run a longer night without photocopying the book.
