Bongo’s Bingo have got a run of summer shows coming up in Newcastle and the chance to be immersed in hours of wild and pure escapism.
With the UK’s summer all over the place, guaranteed good times are always at Bongo’s Bingo no matter the time of year.
The UK’s most talked about party has got a run of dates at Boiler Shop in July and August and dates are also on sale for September. There’s the wild 00s Special on Saturday August 31st and the return of all things Shania Twain, Luke Combs, Dolly Parton, Chris Stapleton and loads of other country stars for a Country Special on Sunday 22nd September for a matinee.
What started as a random idea between two friends in Liverpool in 2015 is now the definitive and original competitive socialising event, with millions of tickets sold. It’s rejuvenated the quintessentially quaint game of bingo for a new generation, with sold-out shows taking place in over 40 locations and approaching its 10th anniversary in April 2025.
The dates for July and August at Boiler Shop are: Friday 5th, Friday 12th, Friday 19th, Friday 26th and Saturday 27th July then Saturday 3rd, Saturday 10th, Saturday 17th, Friday 23rd, Saturday 24th, Friday 30th and Saturday August 31st (00s Special)

Jonny Bongo, Bongo’s Bingo co-founder and original host, explains: “We’ve got a run of summer shows across the UK in all of our favourite locations, including Boiler Shop in Newcastle. Summer is of course usually the time for sunshine, but as we all well know with the climate here it can change fast. So our run of summer shows are perfect for anyone and their crew wanting to have some indoors fun too.”
The UK’s most talked about night out features amazing music, crazy and nostalgic prizes, en masse Karaoke, rave rounds, dance-offs, the odd pink unicorn and Wacky Wavy, audience participation and – of course – plenty of bingo. It’s all part of the most bonkers, surreal and energetic night rolled into one glorious party at Bongo’s Bingo.
