At Bellini's Newry · 25 Merchants Quay, Newry, Co. Down
Bellini’s in Newry hosts the Big Comedy Quiz Show on Saturday 15 August 2026, a live event that blends a traditional pub quiz with stand-up style hosting. The evening is fronted by host Zara Tweed alongside co-host Adam Mogey, promising, in the organiser’s own words, “quick wit, ridiculous challenges, and laugh-out-loud moments.” Expect “wild quiz rounds” with “unexpected twists and surprises” built in alongside the general knowledge, plus special guest appearances on the night. It runs for three and a half hours, so there is time for several rounds as well as room for the comedy interludes between them.
Bellini’s sits on Merchants Quay in Newry city centre, close to the Newry Canal and within walking distance of the main Hill Street and Monaghan Street shopping areas. Newry has regular Translink bus and rail links from Belfast and Dublin, and several pay-and-display and multi-storey car parks serve the city centre.
Merchants Quay runs along the Newry Canal, so it is an easy spot to combine with a walk along the waterway or a browse of the shops on Hill Street before the quiz starts. Newry’s city centre bars and restaurants are all within a short walk, useful for teams wanting to grab food before an 8:00pm start. There is more to see and do in Newry and across Co. Down.
