Introducing National Bingo Day - Sunday, 27th June 2021

This upcoming week is very special in the Bingo world, as this Sunday, June 27th is the first time that National Bingo Day will be officially celebrated in the UK. Yes you heard that right, a whole day dedicated to one of the nation's favourite games! Like many, the bingo industry was hit hard by Covid-19 throughout 2020 and the beginning of 2021, so National Bingo Day has been launched to revitalise the industry and put the game we all love back into the public eye for bingo fans and newbies alike. 

From bingo halls to affiliate sites like ourselves, everyone in the industry is getting involved to celebrate bingo this Sunday! Here at OnlineBingo, we’ve gone one step further and have decided to celebrate all week with fun content for our readers.

Our National Bingo Day schedule includes:

• Wednesday 23rd June: What does National Bingo Day mean to bingo halls?: we've spoken to the people behind the UK's favourite bingo halls to find out what they love most about the big game
• Thursday 24th June: The Future of Bingo: We take a prophetic look into what's next for bingo to discover what innovations may be introduced in the upcoming years 
• Friday 25th June: Exclusive National Bingo Day bonuses: We’ve teamed up with some of our online bingo partners and have  some exclusive offers to help celebrate.

To kick the celebrations off, we thought we'd list off what we think makes bingo so fun and why you should have a go at the game this weekend!

Why we love bingo:

1. It’s social! - The great thing about bingo is it brings people together. Whether you’re at a bingo hall or playing online, chances are you’ve made friends through Bingo. 
2. It’s easy to play! The great thing about Bingo is that it’s not complicated. Due to this simplicity it’s enjoyed by everyone - whether your 18 or 80 chances are you’d enjoy bingo.
3. More chance to winning! - As great as Bingo is, it’s even better when you win. Bingo tends to have a host of prizes available for players, so the winning feeling never gets old!
