How to Run an Intro-Guessing Music Bingo Pub Quiz

Take Your Pub Quiz Night to the Next Level

If you're looking for a fresh twist on traditional music bingo, our Pub Quiz Classics game offers something truly special: the ability to play it as both a classic music bingo game and an intro-guessing pub quiz challenge.

What Makes This Game Different?

Unlike standard music bingo games, Pub Quiz Classics comes with precise intro timings for all 48 legendary tracks. This means you can play just the instrumental opening of each song—before the lyrics kick in—and challenge your players to name that tune. It's the perfect combination of music bingo and pub quiz trivia!

48 Iconic Intros to Test Your Knowledge

From the unforgettable guitar riff of Sweet Child o' Mine (45 seconds) to the atmospheric build-up of In the Air Tonight (50 seconds), this game features some of the most recognizable intros in music history:

• Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple (49 sec)
• Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin (51 sec)
• Hotel California - Eagles (51 sec)
• Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana (33 sec)
• Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics (26 sec)
• Africa - Toto (30 sec)
• Take On Me - a-ha (32 sec)
• Wonderwall - Oasis (21 sec)

Three Ways to Play

Option 1: Traditional Music Bingo
Play each track as a traditional Music Bingo game and let players mark the songs on their tickets as they recognise them. Play for a line and continue towards a full house.

Option 2: Intro-Guessing Pub Quiz
Play only the intro (using the timings provided) and challenge players to identify the song before the vocals start. Award points for correct guesses, then mark it off the bingo card. This adds an extra layer of competition and keeps everyone engaged!

Option 3: Combine Both!
Start with the intro-guessing challenge for bonus points, then continue the track for the Music Bingo element.
