AUSTIN, TX — JULY 21, 2025 — In a region where big ideas, bold flavors, and Friday night lights reign supreme, there’s a new way Austinites are coming together each week: by answering in the form of a question. Jeopardy! Bar League is the latest evolution of America’s Favorite Quiz Show®, powered by Geeks Who Drink and TimePlay in partnership with Sony Pictures Television.
The game is thriving in the greater Austin area, bringing Jeopardy! out of the production studio and into bars and breweries across the area. From Pflugerville to Point Venture, locals now have a new favorite way to combine brains, beers, and bragging rights.
Jeopardy! Bar League has sparked a weekly ritual—where friends, newcomers, and trivia lovers gather to test their knowledge, share a drink, and celebrate curiosity. As Jeopardy! marks more than 60 years of rewarding brainpower, its presence in bars throughout Austin proves that learning can be social, competitive, and a whole lot of fun.
Jeopardy! Bar League takes the iconic game format fans have come to love and adapts it into a live, team-based experience, giving you the chance to tackle each question as a group or play solo.
“We already know that many people, including me, watch and play along with our show in bars,” said Michael Davies, Jeopardy! Executive Producer. “And we know that many of our contestants come from the thriving culture of bar trivia, so it seemed only natural for us to combine these elements into Jeopardy! Bar League.”
Powered by TimePlay’s cutting-edge technology, and hosted by the high-energy hosts at Geeks Who Drink, Jeopardy! Bar League allows teams of quizzers to engage with the game in real time, using their mobile devices to respond to clues, track their scores, and see live leaderboards within their bar, and subsequently across the nation next year.
