Bingo Night
🎉🌈 MARK YOUR CALENDARS! 🌈🎉
The glitter gods have spoken — and their message is clear: BINGO. IS. BACK. 💥
@blondieliciousx is bringing the camp and the chaos to @roisindubhpub for one unforgettable night of bingo — all in support of Galway Pride Week 2025! 💅✨
🗓 Friday, May 16th
⏰ 7PM – 9PM
👑 Hosted by the outrageously glamorous, scandalously stunning Blondie Boots!
Get ready for:
🎱 Two rounds of high-stakes, camp-as-hell bingo action
🎁 Grand prizes for our lucky full-house heroes
💃 Mini-games & spot prizes throughout the night — because we live for the drama
🎭 A Best Dressed prize, so come correct or come in costume
🌈 Pure queer joy, high-stakes antics, and drag-fuelled nonsense from start to finish
Whether you’re a bingo newbie or a dabbin’ diva, this is not your nan’s bingo — unless your nan’s a total icon, in which case, bring her too. 💖
📢 Tag your bingo besties, polish those heels, and throw on your fiercest lewk — we’re raising money, raising eyebrows, and raising hell (in the best way).
