Playtech Launches Its Biggest-Ever Bingo Competition, With £675,000 in Prizes

UK bingo players are in for an exciting winter as Playtech has just announced Bingo Blizzard, with £675,000 in prizes to be won over three months.

The three-month competition starts on 2 November 2026, and there are £75,000 in prizes in November, £100,000 in December, and a massive £500,000 in prizes for the January Final.

WhichBingo is Playtech‘s partner for the competition, bringing all the participating bingo sites together in one place so you can find the right one to join.

It’s set to be the headline bingo event of the winter, and the perfect excuse to try somewhere new. There are no new games to learn either: join a participating site, opt in, use your Championship tickets and play for a much bigger prize pot.

The Bingo Sites taking part

As Playtech’s partner for Bingo Blizzard, WhichBingo is the one place to see every participating brand side by side. Here’s who’s confirmed so far:

Fancy a fresh start for the Championship? There’s no restrictions on the number of sites you can play at.

So compare each site’s welcome offer, everyday bingo rooms, payment options and customer support in our bingo sites reviews, then join the one that suits you best before the first qualifier kicks off.

How you get involved

  1. Join a participating site through WhichBingo
  2. Go to the site’s bingo lobby and opt in to the Championship
    • You’ll get 10 free tickets if you opt in during November
  3. Play at any bingo room
  4. Stake at least £10 in a month to earn tickets to the monthly Bingo Event

You’ll be playing for winning patterns and feature payouts, just like any other game. There’s no need to play more than usual to join in, so stick to your normal budget and enjoy it.

Key dates for your diary

Bingo Blizzard runs from 2 November 2026 to 30 January 2027, with an event in November and an event in December leading into a January Final.

That gives you three months of special events to dip in and out of whenever suits you, with a grand finale to round off the winter.

You don’t have to participate every month, but participating in each month can get you extra tickets to the January Final.

  • Event One: November 28 – 9pm
  • Event Two: December 29 – 9pm
  • The Final: January 30 – 9pm

What Happens on Event Nights?

The monthly events are where you can win the big prizes. Each event consists of 10 rounds of bingo starting at 9pm. Any bingo tickets you earn during the month will be spread across the 10 rounds. And you can prebuy tickets to specific rounds.

  • November Full House Prizes: £2,500–£10,000
  • December Full House Prizes: £2,500–£15,000
  • January Full House Prizes: £12,500–£100,000
