Brixton Jamm

Y2K Extravaganza at Brixton Jamm

Brixton Jamm commissioned us to create and deliver a quiz like no other, so we seriously threw it back to the Year 2000.

The brief

The venue wanted a one-off themed night that would draw a crowd and be nothing like a typical pub quiz.

How we sold the night

OMG guys! U will never guess WOT! No, Kelly Rowland hasn't been able to text Nelly back on an Excel spreadsheet yet, BUT we are throwing a huge Y2K quiz, and you, hun, are invited! This is the quiz for all of you who know your early noughties a little bit too well. From your Paris Hilton quotes to your Britney song lyrics, we want to find and crown the most knowledgeable babe in London.

What we delivered

  • •Questions delivered via Teletext, music videos, long-lost adverts and a banging Y2K playlist
  • •Star Turn, our take on the karaoke talent show
  • •Lonely Hearts x Blind Pick
  • •A Year 2000 sweets taste test
  • •Points for the highest Snake score on a Nokia 3310
  • •Y2K-themed cocktails, with Only Jerkin' cooking up a storm with the best in fried chicken
  • •A dress code: low-rise flared jeans, crop tops and platforms, so eat your pop princess heart out

The result

The night that started Get Social's live quizzes: from Brixton Jamm the format went on to Thursday, Camp Wildfire, Linnworks, Runa and Out For Sport.
