Important information about Online History Bee and Bowl Regionals
Each Online History Bee and Bowl Regional event will offer a different combination of question set and schedule of events. For the March Online History Bee and Bowl, the A Set of questions will be used, the Bee will take place Saturday, and the Bowl will happen on Sunday. This event is open to all students, regardless of what state they are from, as long as they have not yet played this set of questions in the 2025-2026 academic year. For further information, please email us at hs-info@iacompetitions.com. Thank you, and we look forward to seeing you online in March!
