With precious few highlights to cherish in what has truly been an incredibly challenging 10 months for everyone, being cooped up again across the UK is a sobering thought.
But Bongo’s Bingo is here to help.
Before the pandemic, Bongo’s Bingo was in over 40 UK locations and more around the world, including Manchester, selling out shows months in advance and close to selling 2m tickets.
Bongo’s Bingo’s live virtual shows on Twitch back in April and May saw millions of people tuning in as the successful experiential concept reached out to the nation, beaming straight into our living rooms.
And now the search is on for the UK’s most talented dancers, singers, magicians, stand-ups, gymnasts, onion eaters, egg headers or something completely unique.
Sit back and strap in for Bongo’s Got Talent.
No talent is too weird or crazy for the new show, which is completely free to enter and watch on Twitch.
And each Saturday during the lockdown there will be a special Bongo’s Bingo show to get the nation entertained.
Bongo’s Got Talent launches this Saturday 9th January on Twitch – fully live and brimming with chaos, magic and mayhem for some already much needed escapism.
The public will pick their favourite talent, alongside Jonny, Rich Furness and a *Special Guest Judge* (just don’t get too excited, they say), and gift the lucky winner a feast of Bongo’s Bingo prizes, including a Henry Hoover, a giant pink fluffy unicorn, a Disney Princess set (including Elsa), and tickets to a Bongo’s Bingo summer show of your choice.
There’s also the chance to win £500 cash.
How to enter
Want to take part?
First, you need to record a video – make sure it’s in landscape mode.
Tell them your name, and a little bit about yourself.
Then tell them what talent you’ll be performing – and take it away!
You’ll need to get your entries emailed into [email protected] by 11am on Saturday morning.
You can watch the madness unfold live from 8pm on Saturday 9th January 2021 at twitch.tv/bongosbingo.
