How do bingo halls, like riva or mecca work?
I’m a member of Mecca and Gala bingo clubs, you do need to be a member but it is free to join. There are no entrance fees, just pay per game. There are set prices for books say £1.20 per ticket, but often they have an ‘all in’ night when you pay a set amount (say £10) and receive all your books for the session. Bingo halls normally have a lunchtime sessions starting around 12ish, these sessions are not as popular so prize money is less and evening sessions starting around 7pm and ending around 10pm (I would recommend evening sessions as prize money is better!) Most bingo halls have a fully licensed bar and a canteen/snack bar selling food, hot drinks and soft drinks. Hopefully this helps – have a great time!
