Following four successful years in Houndsditch Aldgate ruling the roost as the most riotous bingo venue in town, Dabbers Social Bingo are delighted to announce the opening of a second venue, this time taking their modern take on bingo to the ever-vibrant Hackney.
The venue’s new schedule includes the brand-new Dabbers Social Bingo Club; exclusive to Hackney and designed with awareness of so many people facing current cost-of-living challenges, this community focussed show designed to run at-cost for Dabbers, with no profit margin. Running every Tuesday, Dabbers Social Bingo Club will have all the glitz, sass and flamboyancy of Dabbers Bingo extravaganzas but offers discounted entry and half priced drinks. Dabbers have specifically created this night with the aim of bringing a much-needed fun evening out to those on a careful budget.
Creative Director Jonny Unknown says of the endeavour “Our Social Bingo Club will not be means tested, you do not need to *prove* that you’d struggle to afford a full price night out order to be allowed in. But we really hope that people will respect the spirit of what the event is all about – so if they have money for our other nights, they leave Tuesdays open to those who could really benefit from a great evening at a heavily discounted price.”
Also exclusive to Hackney, the Bow Bells Bingo on Saturday afternoons brings an East London experience, complete with cockney rhyming slang bingo calls. Hosted by a Hackney local whose mother tongue has always included a wide range of cockney lingo
Dabbers will also bring a modern twist to their Hackney-inspired lunchbox, to enjoy a selection of fresh bagels, Pearly Kween oyster inspired cocktails and in a blast from the (Hackney) past meets the food of the future – vegan pork pies, vegan jellied eels with a twist and Espresso Martini milk bottles
