National Bingo Day first launched in the UK on Sunday 27th June 2021, and despite the challenges of the pandemic at the time, it proved to be a huge success. Bingo clubs across the country came together, alongside over 88% of UK online bingo sites, to celebrate the game we all love.
In the years that followed, momentum continued to build, with growing media attention and even more online brands getting involved.
Now in 2026, the celebration has evolved into National Bingo Week, running from Monday 22nd to Sunday 28th June, a full week dedicated to bingo-fuelled fun. It brings together clubs, brands, players, and communities from right across the UK.
