Gather your fellowship for library LOTR trivia

Tuesday 30 November 2021

UPDATE: This event has been postponed.

Many may demand a recount, but this year marks the 20th anniversary of the release of Peter Jackson’s monumental The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring movie. To celebrate, Wollongong City Libraries is hosting a free trivia night based on all things Lord of the Rings!

Comic Gong Presents: Lord of the Rings Trivia will take place at Wollongong Library on Friday, 10 December from 7 – 9pm for adults 18 and over.

Dust off your hobbit feet, brush up on your Elvish and sign up for a fun filled evening. Book the night with groups of up to 6 adults or as a single to join a group. Prizes will be on offer for the best dressed and winning team.

“With all of our libraries open again it’s wonderful to have events like these making their way back. Our libraries are delightful meeting places and while online worked well during the COVID restrictions, opportunities to meet up in real life bring the community back together,” Wollongong City Council’s Director Community Services Kerry Hunt said.

“More and more events are beginning to appear on the library calendar, and I encourage everyone in our community to explore our Wollongong City Libraries’ website and discover a new service or upcoming event that might be of interest.

“Of course, it’s imperative that we enjoy these events and all our library services in the safest way possible. That means checking in before entering, having proof of vaccination and wearing a mask where appropriate. As always, if feeling unwell, we encourage you to get tested and stay at home, “Ms Hunt said.

“We will keep a watchful eye on changes to public health orders and will keep you up-to-date of any changes that impact our events’.

With this year’s Comic Gong scaled down due to the pandemic, this event is the first of many that will build towards the launch of an exciting Comic Gong 2022.

Attendees are welcome to bring their own soft drinks, snacks and lembas bread.

All attendees will be required to check in with a QR code at the door and must show proof of vaccination before entering. Masks will also be required to be worn during the event unless while eating or drinking.

Book your free tickets today at the Eventbrite website, or find more information on the Wollongong City Libraries events page.
