There’s trivia—and then there’s Book Trivia at The Corner Wedgewood.
The difference? It’s not about who remembers the most obscure detail from Chapter 17. It’s about a room full of people who love stories. People who still dog-ear pages, argue about endings, and casually quote Toni Morrison over cocktails. People who find joy in conversation that starts with, “Wait—did you actually read that one?”
Once in a while, when the mood is just right, our space becomes something softer, smarter, and just a little nerdier. Book Trivia nights don’t happen on a predictable schedule—and we like it that way. We keep it loose, we keep it local, and we keep it intimate.
You might find yourself in the middle of a “Fiction vs. Memoir” lightning round, drink in hand, laughing at your teammate’s confidence in the wrong answer. You might be debating the exact year The Bell Jar came out. Or trying to remember if you ever actually finished that Colleen Hoover book you swear you loved
But here’s the thing: it’s never really about winning. It’s about showing up. Connecting. Letting your brain stretch a little while your glass stays full.
Cocktails and Canon, All in One Night
Every time we host a trivia night, we tailor the drinks to the theme. Maybe it’s a smoky mezcal riff for a noir mystery theme. Maybe it’s sparkling sangria for a summer romance round. Maybe it’s something a little moodier—bourbon with spice—for a night focused on gothic classics.
We believe good storytelling deserves good drinks. And at The Corner, we’re always thinking about both.
Want to Host a Book Night of Your Own?
We’ve got space for that. Whether you’re part of a long-running book club, a local bookstore looking to activate your community, or just someone who wants to throw a clever birthday party with custom cocktails and themed rounds—we can help bring it to life.
The space is flexible. The lighting is warm. The staff knows how to step in when needed and disappear when they should. We’ve worked with authors, publishers, and literary collectives who needed a venue that felt like part of the story—not just a backdrop.
And if trivia isn’t your thing? Maybe it’s a reading. A silent book exchange. A panel. A storytelling night. If words are involved, The Corner is the place to let them land.
So keep an eye out. Trivia nights return when the moment feels right—and they tend to fill up fast. Until then, consider this your open invitation to plan something of your own.
Because stories deserve a room. And we’ve got one ready.
