Bongo’s Bingo Christmas: Sheffield ABBA-inspired festive bingo rave tickets now on sale

Bongo’s Bingo will be holding four nights of ABBA-inspired festive nightclub fun this December.

Self styled as ‘the UK’s original and defining bingo rave phenomenon’, Bongo’s Bingo has been a mainstay of Sheffield’s nightlife calendar since 2015.

This year’s festive dates at the O2 Academy at December 9, December 27, December 28 and December 29.

However, the organiser’s website says tickets have already sold out for December 9, and early bird tickets have been cleaned out across all four nights.

This year’s ABBA inspired event, titled The Winner Takes It All, will feature back to back singalong music and prizes St Nicholas would approve of.

Organiser Jonathan Lacey, aka Jonny Bongo, said: “Christmas is my favourite time of the year and we are going national with The Winner Takes It All after launching it in Liverpool last Xmas.

“We are making our shows as good as we possibly can, featuring all of the usual Bongo’s Bingo antics and a big fat dollop of festive love from us too. The O2 Academy will be bouncing this Christmas at The Winner Takes It All in Sheffield.

“We are all buzzing too as we’ve recently been on the front page of The Wall Street Journal across America for Bongo’s Bingo, which is crazy.”

Games and party events at the bingo nights include rave rounds, nostalgia-soaked revelry, dance-offs, audience participation and prizes in a night of “pure and unadulterated escapism”.

Tickets start at £11 from the Bongo’s Bingo website.
