The Ultimate News Quiz is back for 2024!
The Ultimate News Quiz invites a guestlist of TV and News personalities to battle it out in a current affairs quiz. As one of London’s most popular charity events, it has raised over £1.6 million since it began in 2007.
Previous years have seen famous faces including Louis Theroux, Grayson Perry, Dermot O'Leary, Vanessa Feltz, Dr Ranj Singh, Martin Lewis, Carol Vorderman, Piers Morgan, Susanna Reid and stars of ITV’s the Chase racing to be crowned champions. Alongside teams such as BBC, ITV, This Morning, Good Morning Britain and Channels 4 and 5, we’ve also had renowned corporations with the likes of Netflix, Google, Amazon and Facebook in attendance.
Our most recent event took place on 9th March 2023 where we raised an incredible £250,000. 5 News claimed the victory this year - but it's all to play for when we return in February 2024...

Not only are they home to some of the most exciting and passionate football in the world, The Premier League is also the generous headline sponsor of Action for Children’s Ultimate News Quiz.
Thanks to their ongoing support, every penny raised at the Ultimate News Quiz is put towards giving more children and young people in the UK a safe and happy childhood.

A brilliantly fun event and a fantastic networking/client entertainment opportunity, the Ultimate News Quiz is also a way of raising vital funds for Action for Children.
Tickets include a sparkling reception, delicious two-course meal with unlimited wine, beer and soft drinks, alongside your entry to the quiz. There will also be a grand auction, silent auction and raffle with some incredible prizes up for grabs!
Right now, over 4 million children live in poverty across the UK. That’s almost 30% of all children. And 350,000 more than last year. With the impact of the cost of living crisis hitting home, they’re even more vulnerable. Tonight, many will go to sleep hungry. Some won’t have a proper bed to climb into or a safe space to wake up in.
Last year, people like you helped us reach more than 670,000 children, young people and families in the UK, and supporting the Ultimate News Quiz will help us reach even more.
