Our Guide To Nottingham New Year's Eve Events 2026




Old Skool BINGO New Years Eve Nottingham

@ NG-ONE on Thu, 31st Dec 2026 @ multiple start times (see ticket info)

  • Location: NG-ONE, 76-80, Lower Parliament St, Nottingham, NG1 1EH
  • Time: 6pm - 9pm 
  • Price: varies 
  • Why we recommend: if NYE isn't an excuse to attend the wildest bingo event in the city, we don't know what is. Even if you don't win any prizes, you'll make memories that are worth just as much – and it ends before midnight, so you'll have plenty of time to fit even more fun into the evening. Start as you mean to go on… 

Old Skool Bingo is the UK's biggest RnB bingo experience… and it's heading to Nottingham. As you might have guessed, this night is about way more than dabbing all the numbers on a bingo card; while you compete for some huge prizes, you'll be put through your paces with dance competitions, crowd challenges, and throwback RnB hits that you're pretty much obliged to belt out. 

Expect surprise giveaways throughout the night and an early NYE countdown celebration – which means you'll get two in one night. Birthday packages are available for a double-whammy party that will surely turn out to be one of the best starts to the year imaginable.
