Beginners Bingo

#
Note: This event has already passed.

Technically, Bingo is a fun and easy game, 5 in row and Bingo. But, if you ever visited the MWR Bingo Hall, you know that’s not true. Bingo is fun, it’s an experience, but to compete against professional players and really win the big payouts like $7,500 or even $10,000, you need to know how to play it fast, know the lingo, all the different games and options.

Beginners Bingo first session happens on Tuesday, April 2 – doors open at 4 p.m., Bingo session starts at 5 p.m.!

Every 1st Tuesday we will open our doors at 4 p.m., Bingo session starts at 5 p.m. Can’t make the evening time? No problem, we listened to what you told us and offering a noon time to learn Bingo as well.

Every 3rd Tuesday of the month, we open our doors at 11 a.m. and Bingo session starts at 12 p.m./noon.
