Continuing their endeavours to create entertaining virtual experiences to combat ‘iso boredom’, small group tour operator G Adventures has announced they will be hosting a weekly virtual trivia night that is free and open for anyone to attend.
The first trivia night (a.k.a Geo Party), will be Tuesday, May 5 at 7:00pm AEST / 9:00pm NZT and will be hosted through a Zoom Webinar with GPS Jake Hilbert as quiz master. Each ‘Geo Party’ will feature five questions from eight different rounds including: food & drink, history, sport, geography, music, anagrams, entertainment and culture. Every week, the quiz will focus on a different country, to kick it off, they’re starting in our own backyard with Australia and New Zealand. Teams can register their attendance here.
Adrian Piotto, G Adventures Managing Director Australia and New Zealand, believes that in this post-covid world virtual is the new reality.
“G Adventures has always created community through shared experiences, and while travellers can’t come together in person right now, they can still connect, learn about different places, and hopefully get some inspiration about where they want to go next – all using the gift of technology.”
More than anything though, Piotto believes the trivia nights serve as a ‘bit of fun’ for an industry going through an unprecedentedly difficult time.
“It’s all about bringing people together and staying connected so put the MAFS re-runs on mute, crack a cold one and get cracking on a team name!”
The trivia nights form part of the operators suite of new Virtual Travel Experiences, which have been designed for armchair travellers to connect with the world around them, to discover new places and cultures. Other Virtual Travel Experiences designed to keep travellers engaged include live virtual small group tours, virtual walking tours, virtual moments and virtual backdrops.
