NATIONAL BINGO WEEK IS BACK – FOR ITS 5TH YEAR!

This year sees National Bingo Week return Monday 23^rd to Sunday 29^th June 2025 – with the Bingo industry joining together to celebrate their love of the game and the joy it brings to communities up and down Great Britain.

Entering its fifth year, operators from both retail and online will be celebrating National Bingo Week, with a series of in-club activities taking place during the week, including:

• Value Session: Operators will be offering discounted value bingo sessions on the evening of Wednesday 25th June. Offers will include half price games, money off your bingo, and some operators will even be providing a free cup of tea (at the discretion of each operator and club)
• Charity Game: will be held at bingo clubs up and down the country on Friday 27^th June – MP’s will be invited to attend and will have the opportunity to call the game.  All proceeds will go to Variety – The Children’s Charity, the Bingo Association’s charity of choice.  The game is expected to raise over £20,000, which will contribute to the total of over £2m raised by the industry since 2015
• Super Prize Money: On Sunday Evening the 29^th June, £100k is guaranteed to be won in a National Bingo Game participating Bingo Club, or at a Buzz Bingo venue

This year, the campaign recognises the value of bingo as a ‘generation game’ – encouraging all generations to play together to drive community engagement – as most bingo clubs are the hearts of the communities they operate in.

Research commissioned by The Bingo Association will be revealing the growing disconnect between generations – and the opportunity bingo offers for both families, friends and generations to communicate and spend quality time with one another, as well as identifying the challenges facing older relatives. Bingo will be positioned as the perfect remedy in reconnecting and nurturing intergenerational relationships.

Supported by media and social influencers up and down the nation visiting their local clubs to highlight the importance of the ‘generation game’.

Miles Baron, Chief Executive at The Bingo Association says: “We’re delighted to be launching this year’s National Bingo Week. Following the success of previous years, we’ve extended this to be a full Week not just a Day. We’re hugely proud to combine as an industry with all operators coming together to champion the love of the bingo.

We continue to see the impact bingo makes in communities up and down the country, and this year’s campaign theme of ‘the generation game’ tells that story. Bingo is a place for everyone, it offers a space for people to connect with others. We are looking forward to welcoming our customers, new and old, to celebrate the fun, sociability and value of a day or night out at the bingo.”
