SEX | A Year in Review: Christmas Quiz

An end-of-year panel + news quiz on the sex, smut and scandals that shaped 2026. Free drinks, snacks and glorious prizes to be won "Everything in the world is about sex, except sex. Sex is about power." So said Oscar Wilde. Or so we thought... Nonetheless, its wisdom stands, and what better way to close the year than by looking back at all the ways sex has shaped it? To end 2026 with a BANG (!), Sex Talks is bringing together a panel of writers, thinkers and provocateurs to reflect on the year in sex, and assist host and founder of Sex Talks, Emma-Louise Boynton, as she guides you through an end-of-year news quiz on the sex, smut and scandals that shaped 2026. Expect rounds on: • Erotic literature: from the classics to the books everyone was secretly reading this year • Sex in culture: from politics to fashion, how everything sexed up in 2026 • Sex scandals: the headlines, the resignations and the cover-ups • Dating wrapped: the apps, the ick and the viral horror stories that shaped 2026 • Celebrity dating gossip: who got together, who split up and who denied everything Plus: drop your own most scandalous dating moment of 2026 into our sex confessions box and we'll hand out prizes to the most salacious of the lot at the end of the evening. Who to come with? Come with a friend, a date, your full team, or simply come alone and we'll match you up with some absolute dreamboats. Will there be drinks? Yes! There'll be free drinks, snacks and (sexy) prizes worth winning, and the kind of conversation you just can't have at your office Christmas party.
