Bongo's Bingo announces new Scotland date as rave phenomenon sets 'special' show

Bongo's Bingo has announced a new "special afternoon" show later this month in Edinburgh.

The award-winning bingo rave phenomenon will host a March Matinee Madness event on Saturday, March 11. It will be held at the O2 Academy venue in the capital.

With most Scottish dates selling out months in advance, the new show will give eager Scots another chance to take part in the one-of-a-kind event.

Bongo’s Bingo is an immersive bingo experience that mixes evenings of traditional bingo with "all kinds of contemporary chaos from start to finish". It features "nostalgia-soaked revelry, rave rounds, dance-offs, audience participation, en masse Karaoke, crazy prizes, mad moments" and more.

Since launching in 2015, it has become among the most talked about nights out in the country, with millions of tickets sold.

Commenting on the announcement, Bongo’s Bingo’s co-founder Jonny Bongo said: "Scotland is an absolute Bongo’s Bingo hotspot, especially with Edinburgh and Glasgow going crazy for our shows plus Dundee and Aberdeen too.

Tickets are available now. More information can be found on the Bongo's Bingo website.
