Build a custom Christmas trivia pack in under a minute — swap in exactly the questions you want, then print it, download the PDF, or export slides for the TV. No signup.
This is the fastest way to run a Christmas trivia night: a free printable pack drawn from our bank of 150 verified Christmas questions — the holiday’s history, the carols, Santa’s legend, feasts around the world and a full Christmas movies round — every one checked against reliable sources before publication. Open the pack builder with the Christmas category preloaded, set your question count and rounds, swap out anything you don't like, and you're done. The finished pack prints cleanly, downloads as a single PDF (cover page, host guide, rounds, answer key, team answer sheet and score sheet), or exports as a PowerPoint deck with big-type question slides and answer reveals for running the night on a TV. Want to study the material first? The full Christmas question bank lists every question and answer, and the interactive Christmas quiz lets you play them yourself.
Everything a host needs, in one file. The PDF opens with a cover page and a short host guide (team sizes, timing, scoring tips), then lays out your questions round by round — each with four options, the correct answer marked, and a one-line fact to read aloud after the reveal. At the back: a compact answer key, a numbered team answer sheet ready to photocopy, and a score-sheet grid for up to eight teams.
Running it on a screen instead? The PowerPoint export builds a title slide, a divider for each round, a big-type slide per question, and answer-reveal slides that show the correct choice with its fact — open it in PowerPoint, Google Slides or Keynote and plug into the TV. Both files are generated right in your browser; nothing is uploaded and nothing requires an account.
And it's genuinely custom. Choose 5–100 questions across 1–5 rounds, mix Christmas with any of the 30+ categories in our bank (Thanksgiving, the '80s, the '90s, Friends and more), swap any question for a fresh one, or hand-pick from the unused pool with a searchable list. We only ask that you keep the small attribution line crediting besttriviagames.com.
Ten of the 150 — click to reveal each answer and its read-aloud fact.
December 25 — December 25 marks the Christian celebration of the birth of Jesus. December 24 is Christmas Eve, and January 6 is Epiphany — and Christmas Day itself in the Armenian Apostolic tradition, while Orthodox churches on the older Julian calendar celebrate on January 7.
Advent — Advent begins four Sundays before Christmas. Advent calendars — a German invention — turned the countdown into a daily ritual of doors, pictures, and eventually chocolate.
December 25 — The twelve days run from Christmas Day to January 5, ending at Epiphany on January 6 — so the song's gift marathon starts on Christmas, not before it. Twelfth Night marked the close of the medieval festive season.
Boxing Day — Boxing Day likely takes its name from the tradition of giving Christmas boxes — gifts or money — to servants and tradespeople the day after Christmas. It is also St. Stephen's Day, the day the carol's Good King Wenceslas looked out.
The Greek letter chi, the first letter of Christ in Greek — X is the Greek letter chi, the first letter of Christos. The abbreviation has been used by Christian scribes for centuries — it is not a modern shortcut.
Red and green — Green evergreens symbolized life through winter and red matched holly berries — a pairing centuries old that Victorian cards and modern advertising locked in permanently. Gold, for the star and riches of the Magi, is the classic third.
Kiss — The kissing custom grew popular in 18th- and 19th-century England. In one version of the etiquette, a berry was plucked for each kiss — when the berries ran out, so did the kissing.
The Star of Bethlehem — The tree topper recalls the star that, in the Gospel of Matthew, guided the Magi to Bethlehem. The angel is the other classic topper choice.
Eggnog — Eggnog descends from posset, a warm milky ale drink of medieval Britain. Colonial Americans spiked it generously with rum — the name may come from noggin, a small wooden cup it was served in.
Stockings — Legend traces the custom to St. Nicholas tossing bags of gold down a poor man's chimney, where they landed in stockings hung to dry — which is also why oranges in the toe of a stocking represent gold.
