Pre-party planning is needed for this.  You must research and decide on what trivia to ask. There are three ways to play.

 

Game One - Split your guests into two or three teams or couple teams.  Go round robin and give each team a trivia question to guess.  Each round can be worth a set number of points.  The team with the most points after the final round wins. Have a tie breaker question ready in case of a tie. 

 

Game Two - Preprint a set of trivia questions for all guest to answer.  Have guest fill out form and return. During the Oscars commercials, give out the answers to each trivia question. The guest with the most correct answers wins a prize.  Have a tie breaker question ready in case of a tie. 

 

Game Three- During commercial breaks ask a trivia question out loud to the crowd, first to answer correctly wins a prize!
