Get ready to bingo your way to an unforgettable night at Old Skool RnB Bingo. This isn't your average bingo night - it's a lively fusion of classic games and throwback RnB anthems. Picture yourself marking off your numbers while jamming to the smooth sounds of Destiny's Child, Usher, TLC, and more.
With fun prizes, a lively crowd, and plenty of dancing in between rounds, this event brings together the thrill of bingo with the best beats from the 90s and 00s.
