Description
BRISBANE! We are bringing our famous Bingo Loco show back to your doorstep this June in The Met! You are in for a real treat.
Bingo Loco has taken the world by storm, and returns to Australia this May/ June for their maddest show yet. Bingo Loco flips the traditional game of Bingo on its head, with rave rounds, conga lines, dance offs, lip sync battles, glow sticks and prizes – ranging from vacations to cars to lawnmowers.
Originating in Ireland, Bingo Loco is the brainchild of three close friends with a passion for unique events. Now, Bingo Loco is selling out across the globe, with Australian, Canadian, US and Irish shows selling out within a matter of hours! The team is heading back down under this May & June, with host Andrew Stanley, for another night of madness in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Darwin.
A night at Bingo Loco is guaranteed to flip one’s “regular night out” on its head. It promises a night to remember, with many attendees returning time and time again for their entertainment fix. Though the show itself follows a simple three-round structure, no two nights are the same – especially due to the high level of crowd engagement during the show.
“Bingo Loco has become nothing short of an entertainment phenomenon in its birth place of Dublin and beyond.” – Lonely Planet.
Proceeds from Bingo Loco will go to Make-A-Wish® Australia who creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. From the simple to the seemingly impossible, Make-A-Wish® wishes complement medical treatment – working to calm, distract and empower sick kids at the time they need it most. When a wish is realised, a child discovers that despite their situation, anything is possible.

*****FAQ*****
The Bingo Loco I want to attend is sold out! How can I get tickets?
Unfortunately when an event is classified as SOLD OUT, we are booked to full capacity. If the venue opens up extra tickets, we will promptly make announcements on social media and on our website bingo-loco.com. We do not have door sales for sold out events. On the rare occasion that an event has allocated door tickets, it will be explicitly advertised. BEWARE OF FRAUD. The only place we recommend people to find tickets that people are re-selling is ticketswap.com.
Can I refund my ticket?
All ticket sales are final. We use the funds from ticket sales to immediately start putting the event together in advance of the show. If you are looking to sell your ticket or buy tickets to a sold out show, we recommend ticketswap.com as the best place to do so. There has been a lot of fraud ticket sellers on Facebook in recent weeks, so using an official ticket market will provide more security for you selling/buying tickets to third party events.
Can I exchange my ticket for another event?
Tickets are non-transferable.
A big group of us is attending, can we reserve a table?
We don’t reserve tables. Seating is first come first serve! Doors generally open an hour or more before the first game kicks off. Make sure to get to the venue early with your mates to save spots and get some pregame drinks in!
Can I make a group booking for a public Bingo Loco?
We don't have special group bookings for public events. Getting tickets is easy, just go to bingo-loco.com to purchase. Make sure everyone in your group purchases tickets soon after they are released...we sell out at light-speed! To get seated together, make sure you arrive early as seating is on a first come, first served basis.
We do offer private and corporate Bingo Loco events! If you're a venue owner, company, hen party, birthday party, wedding, bar mitzvah or simply want to throw a mad bash, go here to learn more and to make an inquiry: https://www.bingo-loco.com/corporate/
