How much do you really know about WWII?

The National WWII Museum hosts two Quiz Nights each year—one in winter and one in summer—where teams of four compete for WWII knowledge supremacy (and fabulous prizes)!  These events rank as the most popular programs at the Museum.

Check our calendar for the next scheduled Quiz Night.  Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.  The cost is $10 for Museum members and $20 for non-members.  Food is served and there is a cash bar.

Questions at Quiz Night can be about WWII battles, artifacts, personalities, the Home Front, geography, science and technology, and movies and music.
