Tuesday nights tend to be quiet. You’ll cook dinner, maybe enjoy a glass of your favourite tipple and settle down to watch the soaps. But, we all know that sticking to the same routine can be monotonous and sometimes we want to mix it up a bit. For just £3 you could enjoy a game of bingo down at Albert Hall, and trust us… this is not bingo how your Nan knows it.

Jonny Bongo has turned the meaning of bingo on it’s head and transformed it into an opportunity for winning bonkers prizes, dancing on the tables and drinking copious amounts of rum cocktail and beer.

Of course, the VIVA team turned up slightly early and enjoyed a few bevies in one of our favourite Deansgate hang out spots, Alberts Schloss. The atmosphere in there soon lit up, as bingo players cordially awaited their time to go up to Albert Hall.

With 8 games in total, there were plenty of prizes to be won, from boxes of Coco Pops (which were sons rained over the crowd below), to mobility scooters. The regular intervals were just enough time to have a boogie, wave a glow stick and top up your chosen refreshment.

Bongo’s Bingo takes place every Tuesday (except for if there is a gig occurring). Doors open at 7pm and the intensity of the game starts at 8pm.
