Gigs in Scotland hosting 'nae pub quiz' live online to fill live music and pub void amid coronavirus outbreak

A website for the latest gig news and announcements is doing their bit to fill the music and pub void across the country by hosting a special ‘Nae Pub Quiz’ tonight live online.

Gigs In Scotland will stream the quiz live on their Facebook page to offer up some lighthearted fun in the wake of Government advice on minimising social gatherings.

Music fans all across the country are invited to join in the event, which will see some familiar musicians from across Scotland popping by with a question or joining in on the quiz.

And there will be a separate raffle which has some big prizes up for grabs all in aid of Kids Out and National Emergencies Trust - who support both vulnerable kids and those most affected by the recent coronavirus outbreak.

People taking part will be asked to donate £3 to win some money-can’t-buy prizes, with all proceeds being split evenly between the two charities.

Raffle prizes that are up for grabs include a TRNSMT VIP Weekend experience with backstage tour, an Edinburgh Summer Sessions ‘side of stage’ experience, a Bill’s restaurant hamper, five pairs of tickets to any DF Concerts show of your choice (subject to availability), a guitar signed by Scotland’s own Paolo Nutini, and maybe even a pair of socks.

For those who fancy joining in, they should head over to the Gigs in Scotland Facebook page for 8pm tonight.

During each quiz round, participants will be asked to take note of their answers but don’t post them until the round is over – the organisers cannot stress this enough!

Once the round is over, you will have 30 seconds to post all of your answers. After each round, tally up your scores and post it in the comments.

The raffle will be randomly drawn for all of those who have donated and the winners will be contacted.
