Bongo’s Bingo is set to bring two fully open-air shows to Blackpool Pleasure Beach at the end of this month as this surreal summer comes to a close.

Following an extended break this year, Bongo’s Bingo has recently launched a series of events that provide a safe, but very much still fun environment.

Hot on the heels of the latest spectacular outdoor shows in Newcastle and Norwich, the iconic Lancashire seaside resort is the next to host two COVID-safe events, framed by the gigantic spectacle of Blackpool Pleasure Beach’s world-renowned rides.

It’s time to buckle up, hold tight and get ready for a big one as Jonny Bongo and the guys present two epic events.

The new outdoors format debuted at Virgin Money Unity Arena Newcastle – which was billed as the UK’s first socially distanced music venue with two sell-out parties – and since then, the crazy concept has brought thousands of people back together in safe, socially distanced spaces for some outdoor bingo magic, mayhem and escapism under the sun and stars.

Bongo’s Bingo co-founder and presenter Jonny Bongo said: “Our outdoors shows have been simply amazing so far and it has been so good bringing people back together for some much-needed escapism. Doing what we do outdoors, socially-distanced and seeing everyone go wild is very special – the energy from everyone so far has been electric.

“We know Blackpool always likes to party and in such a jaw-dropping location it’s going to be pure class.

“There’s no excuse now not to join us – our two shows are going to be mega”.

If you’re unfamiliar with the Bongo’s Bingo phenomenon, these award-winning events combine the much-loved quaint pastime of bingo with a mesmeric live show, crazy antics and weird and wonderful prizes which have helped create one of the most talked about nights out in the country.

Bongo’s Bingo offers a night full of madness, mischief and shared euphoria, with dancing and cheering to hits from across the ages all night long. Imagine N Trance’s ‘Set You Free’ filtered via S Club 7 and Gerry Cinnamon, to en-masse crowd karaoke renditions of ‘Total Eclipse of the Heart’.
