The grand finale of the campaign unfolded in two formats — one live with 947 at the DP World Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg and the other on-air at Kfm 94.5 in Cape Town. The winners of the events were Kwanda Bhengu from 947 and Aydin Bressler from Kfm 94.5, the stations say.

The 'Suzuki Pop Quiz' has been a feature on 947 and Kfm 94.5 for many years, engaging listeners with the chance to win substantial cash prizes and, for the first time this year, vehicles. The stations add that participants had to register in advance for the opportunity to compete in the final 'Suzuki Pop Quiz'. Throughout 2024, the stations have given away thousands of rands in cash prizes alone, excluding the car giveaways, which adds to the excitement surrounding the event.

At the DP World Wanderers Stadium, listeners were invited to partake in a live showdown, where Johannesburg-based participants faced a series of 50 / 50 questions, gradually eliminating contestants until only Bhengu remained. Meanwhile, Bressler competed in the 'Suzuki Pop Quiz' All-Star Shootout in a separate on-air finale in Cape Town, where he faced winners from throughout the year, winning each round and ultimately the final, the stations say.

In their respective final rounds, both Bhengu and Bressler showcased their knowledge, each answering several questions correctly. The tension was palpable as the winners were determined by who completed their answers the fastest, with Bhangu clinching victory by just three seconds in Johannesburg, while Bressler triumphed in Cape Town as he was the fastest to answer the most questions, the duo adds.

Hennie Myburgh, the station manager for 947 and Kfm 94.5, says, "This year's 'Suzuki Pop Quiz' has not only engaged our listeners but has also created memorable moments, culminating in an energised finale that showcases the spirit of competition and community. We are proud of the partnership with Suzuki and this is a wonderful way to highlight the power of both brands coming together to create something truly magical and life-changing."

The stations add that the event was filled with energy and camaraderie, bringing together a community of quiz enthusiasts at the DP World Wanderers Stadium while also engaging listeners tuning in on Kfm 94.5. Spectators cheered on their favourite contestants, creating an atmosphere that highlighted the bond between the stations and their audiences. The partnership with Suzuki added an extra layer of excitement, as the car giveaways marked a new chapter in the 'Pop Quiz' legacy.

As the 'Pop Quiz' campaign wraps up for the year, it leaves behind a footprint of excitement and community spirit among listeners. Listeners can look forward to even more electrifying opportunities and surprises in the future, as the stations continue to foster engagement and reward their dedicated audiences, the duo concludes.
