36 Exciting Family Feud Trivia Questions and Answers for Teams, Families, and Friends

Whether you’re trying to build camaraderie as a team, deepen  relationships with friends, or have fun with your  family, Family Feud trivia questions will help you achieve your goals.

In this post, we’ll give you  fun Family Feud questions and answers that you can use to get everyone excited. Before that, we need to understand what the game is and how to play.

What is Family Feud?

Family Feud is a game show in which two families compete to name the most popular responses to survey questions. The aim of the game is to guess all of the answers listed on the board. Points are awarded for every correct answer, and the family with the highest number of points wins the game.

To win Family Feud, you need to know how to play it well and be confident in your answers. You will also need to have your family (or team) on your side because you can’t win without them!

Here are some ground rules and tips to understand when creating Family Feud style trivia questions:

  • The host asks the question or prompt  and the first person who buzzes in gets to answer it.

  • If the question has multiple parts, there are no time limits on how long people can take before answering a part of the question.

  • If no one answers correctly, the host can offer clues until someone buzzes in with a correct answer.

  • Once someone answers correctly, they get to choose which family member or team member will answer next.

Preparations before playing Family Feud

Preparing before playing Family Feud is essential. Without it, you cannot enjoy the game to the fullest. It is important that you and your team  have a general idea of the type of Family Feud trivia questions you will be answering. This way, you will make your own decisions about how best to prepare for it. Here are the logistics needed to set this game up:

Getting groups and teams ready

Before starting your Family Feud game, let participants get their teams or groups ready. This includes choosing who will be on what team, and making sure that everyone understands the objectives of the game.

Setting ground rules

It is important to set the rules before you play a Family Feud game with your team. Rules are the foundation of any game. They are what make a game fair and fun. They also help you know what you can and can’t do as you battle it out by answering  the best  Family Feud trivia questions.

Prepare the hosts

One of the most important things to prepare, even before you start creating trivia questions for Family Feud, is to choose a host. You need to make sure that your host is ready for anything, and can bring the energy for you and your team. Having a good host will make the game even more enjoyable - they may encourage friendly competition or provide you with a few laughs.

Set the time and send invites

Pick a time where everyone on your team can take a break to enjoy some team-building fun. The game can be as long or short as needed - you can take 20 mins for Family Feud as an icebreaker before your Zoom meeting, or give a full hour devoted to a Family Feud game. Whichever you pick, make sure you communicate with your team and give ample notice.
