Teams from London to Liverpool and Wolverhampton to Hull will reportedly encounter light financial prompts amid familiar rounds. The aim is to encourage people to engage with financial concepts in a casual and social setting.
“Investing can be a powerful tool for building financial security. Still, financial literacy in the UK remains stubbornly low, not due to a lack of interest, but because clear, accessible money education isn’t easy to come by,” commented Jordan Sinclair, President of Robinhood UK.
“By adding a financial twist to a much-loved British institution, the pub quiz, we’re helping to build financial confidence in a way that’s social, fun and approachable,” he explained.
The quiz nights form part of Robinhood’s broader effort to expand its UK presence and make financial education more relatable. The company said it will analyze anonymous quiz data at the end of the campaign to see where participants show strong understanding and where gaps remain.
Where the Quiz Nights Will Run
Quiz nights will reportedly take place at pubs across the UK, with venues stretching from Preston, Wolverhampton and Hull in the north to London, Milton Keynes, Cambridge and Windsor in the south.
The list includes long-established local pubs as well as city venues with strong quiz followings. The events will be organized and hosted by Question One and Quiz Live. Robinhood staff are, however, not expected to attend.
