Review: Bonkers Bingo at Mecca Bingo York with N-Trance

PLEASE NOTE: Always Be Gamble Aware and please play responsibly. Recently, I was invited to Mecca Bingo York by Rewind Presents for an absolutely mad night of Bonkers Bingo, followed by a special DJ set by N-Trance. I’ve previously reviewed Mecca Bingo York summer menu (& I actually won something!), and then I was again invited along to review 5IVE performing after an evening of bingo. Mecca Bingo York is located on Fishergate, just on the outskirts of York city centre.

Bonkers Bingo is not like regular bingo, it’s as the name states – absolutely bonkers. It mixes your standard bingo format with random prizes, dance offs and some adult language. I brought Kiel along with me as I knew Bonkers Bingo would be his kind of thing, and I was correct! I enjoyed some cocktails and Kiel had some beers. There was a different random prize per game of bingo, some of which people had to compete for if two people had won the same game. Below is photos I took of one of the dance offs, in which the lady in the zebra top won. Well done to both ladies, you were brilliant!

Other prizes included random inflatable objects such as the unicorn in the image below – one man won a red space hopper (I am so jealous). Bonkers Bingo provides a huge amount of entertainment and the atmosphere was brilliant.

The rest of our evening consisted of an awesome performance by N-Trance DJ and MC Finchy, which included N-Trance’s breakthrough song, Set You Free and plenty of other popular 90s and noughties hits. We loved dancing along to those nostalgic anthems and continued to enjoy plenty of drinks, with a few cheeky jagerbombs thrown into the mix.

During the evening, Mecca Bingo York announced that East 17 will be coming to the venue at Christmas – which I definitely do not want to miss! Bonkers Bingo may not be for everyone but we really enjoyed our night and had so much fun. There is so much to keep you entertained, if you want to partake in something very different to your regular bingo game.
