WHAT IS LOL BINGO?

Updated February 24, 2025

LOL Bingo lounges could be referred to as ‘micro bingo’ clubs, but players will nevertheless be able to play for big prizes, including two chances to win up to £20,000 each day through the National Game.

LOL Bingo

LOL Bingo Harpurhey is the go-to destination for local lounge bingo action in Manchester which promises fun, camaraderie, and the chance to win fantastic prizes. 

If you’re in Manchester looking for a spot of entertainment, consider LOL Bingo. A low-key, friendly local bingo room, LOL uses Wexel Gaming’s Bingo Plus to live stream bingo and join the National Bingo Game while offering a laid-back bingo lounge in a cosy atmosphere.

Whether you’re a seasoned bingo enthusiast or a first-timer looking for something new, LOL Bingo Harpurhey could be the best place for you to bingo!

FACILITIES AT LOL BINGO

LOL Bingo is more intimate than the larger, household name bingo halls that dominate the high streets. Based in a shopping centre in Harpurhey’s town centre, this close-knit team works hard to keep the atmosphere buzzing, the slots spinning, the drinks flowing (licensed bar and complimentary hot drinks helps), and patrons happy.

FOOD MENU

LOL Bingo provides simple snacks like paninis and sandwiches – not a vast menu but enough to keep you satisfied. (You could always pop out to one of the many neary places to eat inside the shopping centre.)

TICKETS

LOL Bingo offers a mix of 90-ball, 75-ball, and 80-ball games playable via individual 75’ electronic touchscreen units. Games are live streamed from an outside studio and players follow the calls from much-loved live presenters Gary and Rachel on the screen. Players love it because it doesn’t require the same quiet or concentration as traditional bingo hall play. 

SESSIONS

You can play bingo every day from open to close (10am to 11pm) with two £500 jackpots every 30 mins. There’s no set sessions like there are in other bingo halls, just turn up and play.

PRICES

Games start at 25p. The National Bingo Game costs £1 for a strip of two tickets, or £2 for a strip of five. Call in <24 numbers to win £100, <20 to win £1,000, or <16 to win the big £50,000 jackpot.

ELECTRONIC TERMINALS

Bingo is uncomplicated at LOL Bingo. It’s all electronic and you’re guided on the screen how to play.

COMMUNITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE

The LOL Bingo team fosters a sense of ‘home from home’, perfect if you’re looking for that personal touch. The membership scheme rewards 25 points for every visit, contributing to monthly draws, £3 Bingo credits, and £5 cash matches. 

Social media reflects happy staff who’re appreciated by players (and vice versa!)

EVENTS AT LOL BINGO 

LOL Bingo offers plenty of local events. From coffee morning to an annual LOL Bingo birthday party! Players received £5 bingo credit, a celebratory glass of fizz and a prize draw on top of prize money, plus the chance to hit the £50,000 National Game jackpot.

THE FUTURE OF LOL BINGO

We predict LOL Bingo is set to expand. A planning application to open Bradford’s first LOL Bingo branch was approved, which could see 36 bingo terminals and 35 gaming machines at Enterprise 5 retail park, while there’s also talks on social media of a venue in Wallsend.
