Skipper's Sanctuary Quiz Night

A £2 quiz night at The Stag in Newport, raising money for Skipper's Sanctuary and its long-term care of unreleasable wild birds.

Skipper's Sanctuary Quiz Night brings a charity pub quiz to The Stag on Cowes Road in Newport. It is a straightforward midweek one: turn up for a 19:00 start, pay £2 entry, keep your team to six or fewer, and settle in for questions with a cash prize at the end.

The money raised supports Skippers Sanctuary, an Isle of Wight charity that cares for rescued wild birds that need long-term sanctuary rather than release. That gives the night a clear purpose without making it heavy: bring the people who know obscure facts, bring the one friend who insists they are useless at quizzes, and let the table argue over the answers.

The Stag is just outside Newport town centre, handy if you are coming from Cowes, Parkhurst or central Newport after work. It should suit adults and mixed groups who want a low-cost night out with a local cause attached.
