In this New York City Trivia: The Big Apple Challenge we’re putting your knowledge of NYC to the test. Whether you’ve never visited, or are a native New Yorker, this quiz will get you thinking about the history of this legendary city. It will also have you reminiscing about the people who have lived and died there over the years. In the challenge, you’ll have a chance to answer questions on some key historical events which have taken place in the city over the years.
“In New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of…”, as Alicia Keys wrote in the hit song Empire State Of Mind in 2009! This song, along with many others over the decades and years (who can forget Frank Sinatra’s New York, New York!) pay homage to the infamy of New York City as a megalopolis.
So, why wait? Take the quiz now to find out how well you can do! And remember to share your results once you’ve completed the New York City Trivia: The Big Apple Challenge!
