"Quizduell-Olymp" now twice as exciting: Look forward to celebrity duels on two days a week!

Your weekend is being taken to a new level. Until now, Friday at 6:50 PM was the fixed time for the knowledge duel. But now Saturday is being added! From now on, you can look forward to exciting rounds on Saturday evening at 6:15 PM as well. That means: More time to cheer and guess along!

The new program schedule already started at the end of May with a bang. On Friday evening, it kicked off at 6:50 PM with actors like Trystan Pütter and Heike Makatsch facing the Olymp. And on Saturday? There was an immediate repeat with former football stars Nils Petersen and Patrick Helmes. A perfect start to the quiz double-pack era!

And what about "Gefragt – Gejagt"? Don't worry, the shows complement each other perfectly. While "Quizduell-Olymp" airs on Fridays following Alexander Bommes and his hunters, the shows swap places on Saturday. Then you can first watch the Olymp quiz, before repeats of "Gefragt – Gejagt" follow at 7:05 PM. This way, your quiz appetite is satisfied all weekend long!

Who will face the Olymp is already clear. Look forward to high-caliber guests who must prove their knowledge. Here's a little preview of the upcoming Friday episodes:

The "Quizduell-Olymp" is more than just a test of knowledge. It's about strategy, nerves of steel, and the ability to accurately assess opponents. At the end of each Friday show, it's all about a proud 10,000 euros! This money either goes to the brave players of the ARD Quiz App or is donated to a good cause. A real duel with heart and mind!

The team that forms the Olymp is not to be underestimated: Marie-Louise Finck, the "Quiz Queen" and prosecutor from Kiel; Thorsten Zirkel, the "Quiz Ace" and bank economist from Hanover; and Professor Eckhard Freise, the historian from Münster, who made history as the first millionaire on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." This trio is the ultimate challenge for any celebrity, and that on two days a week!

Get ready for double quiz power!
