What is a bingo hall?

A bingo hall is anywhere that you can play a game of bingo! That can include commercial bingo halls, but also venues for charity bingo games, like places of worship, fire stations, schools, fraternal organizations, or anywhere else for that matter! In WV, all bingo must be for charity, but some bingo halls are permanent, whereas others just rent or borrow a space for their games. Bingo halls may all be different from one another, but inside, they will be set up mostly the same for a game of bingo. There will be somewhere at the front for the bingo caller, as well as tables and chairs for the players. Players will be able to buy their bingo cards and then get ready for some bingo fun! Bingo halls may vary, but the game of bingo is always lots of fun!

How does a game of bingo work?

Bingo is a game that is played all over the world, but how do you play? It might look complicated, but bingo is actually quite simple once you know the basics. The most popular variant played in the USA is 75-ball bingo. For 75-ball bingo, players get a 5x5 grid full of numbers between 1 and 75, with a blank space in the middle. There will be a winning 'pattern' of boxes that the players need to mark to win- it could be a line, a full house, or even a shape like an arrow. Double check what pattern you are trying to match before the game begins! During the bingo game, everyone will be silent so that all the players can hear the caller. The caller will draw and announce the numbers, and the players will daub the numbers on their cards if they have them. The first player to daub all the boxes to match the winning pattern must quickly shout BINGO! This is to stop the game and claim their prize.

How do I know which bingo halls are good?

Every bingo player will have a different thing in mind when they picture their ideal bingo hall. The trick is to find a hall that matches your criteria for a great bingo experience!
