Everyone’s favourite quiz champion, Shaun Wallace, will return to New Zealand this July to present five charity events across the country with Sky-owned company Believe it Or Not.
A huge fan of New Zealand and friend of Believe it or Not, New Zealand’s largest provider of weekly pub quizzes, trivia and quiz nights to corporate and charity sectors, Shaun will continue his quizzing quest around up and down the country to raise more money for local charities following on from the trivia titan’s successful 2023 visit that raised $80,000 for charity.
Shaun and Believe it or Not will host ‘An Evening with Shaun Wallace’ events in Queenstown, Dunedin, New Plymouth, Hamilton, and Kerikeri, with one hundred percent of profits from each event being donated to each region’s chosen charity organisations, including The Louise Davie Charitable Trust, I Am Hope, Gumboot Friday and Hospice Mid Northland.
Believe it or Not founder Brendan Lochead said it would be wonderful to have Shaun Wallace back in New Zealand.
“Shaun loves New Zealand, loves quizzing, loves raising money for charity, and also loves the All Blacks! It’s no coincidence that he will be here for the two tests supporting the boys in black against his home country, England. Shaun will be at both test matches, in Auckland and Dunedin,” said Lochead.
In addition to the trivia evenings, Shaun will be taking in the sights of this country, will pop into the odd pub quiz, and he hopes to meet as many of his fans as possible. Shaun Wallace is best known to New Zealanders as ‘The Dark Destroyer’ on the quiz show “The Chase”.

- Friday 5th July – Memorial Hall Queenstown
- Sunday 7th July – Town Hall, Dunedin
- Monday 8th July – Plymouth International, New Plymouth
- Wednesday 10th July – Sky City, Hamilton
- Friday 12th July – Turner Centre, Kerikeri
