#QuizLive has been drawn up in such a way as to help those competing teams to take part sitting in the comforts of their homes. The quiz will be live and interactive on a video-conferencing platform (Zoom), and will be international in nature and open to all nationalities, age and gender. According to the organisers, the prelims for the quiz will be held on Friday, August 21, at 4:30PM Oman time; the semi-finals on Saturday, August 22, at 4:30PM Oman time, and the finals on Friday, August 20, 2020, from 4:30PM Oman time onwards.

According to Mobin Beg, head of Nexus Novel, “The quiz is aimed at helping residents of Oman to update their general awareness and knowledge of current affairs and use the lockdown days in a productive manner. All are invited to take part in this enlivening event for which exciting prizes are up for grabs. Our philosophy is to ring in ‘edutainment’ events for all age groups. It promises to be as exciting and rewarding as ever. So, it is time to put on your thinking cap.”

The quiz will be hosted by celebrated quizmaster Murli Pillai who is no stranger to Oman. He was a resident of Muscat from 1999 to 2019.
