About us

A Star Is Born

The Showdown Quiz made its stage debut way back in 2006, serving as the fantastic finale to the award-winning treasure hunts of our sister company – Live The City.

It soon became obvious that The Showdown Quiz was a star in its own right and before we knew it, we were on tour, delivering unbeatable quiz events to audiences all over the world.

The Showdown Quiz really is one in a million. The brain child and creation of our marvellous technical team, with simple to use design and ingenious software features, it’s the very best system on the market.

You won’t find our wonderful system anywhere else but we’d love to share it with you for a while!

    Melody heads up the team at Showdown Quiz Events.  Aptly named by optimistic parents, in her spare time, she follows in her musical family’s footsteps as lead singer in a band. She’s also a bit of a closet luvvie and after a glass or two of wine will demonstrate her best ‘jazz hands’ on demand.
