ScholarMatch’s annual Trivia Night fundraiser is back, bigger and better than ever!

Join us on Thursday, September 17, 2026 from 6pm-10pm (PT) at The Green Room at the San Francisco War Memorial and Performing Arts Center for an evening of head-scratching trivia and first-generation celebration (complete with delicious food, tantalizing drinks, and live music!).

How it works:

  1. Bring a friend (or two, or ten!) and take home the gold in knock-down team-style trivia against the Bay Area’s best & brightest.
  2. Fuel up with a delicious dinner & drinks. 2 drinks per ticket.
  3. Compete for a variety of prizes from local vendors, benefiting first-generation students.

Please note: All attendees must be 21+
