Bongo’s Bingo is very proud to announce a very special show on Friday 28th April at The Albert Hall in Manchester, as they bring So Solid Crew to the city.

In just two raucous years – from a dingy venue in Liverpool with a laptop and bingo machine to criss-crossing the UK with sold out shows – Bongo’s Bingo has become a pivotal part of the country’s cultural landscape; the wild scenes at each night, taking in such a vibrant demographic from across the UK, are indicative of a seismic shift happening in the nighttime agenda. And this spring the party is taking in Dubai, as well as further international shows to be revealed soon.

And in keeping with Bongo’s Bingo’s special shows with iconic guests, the end of the month is set to be a real classic: So Solid Crew are the famed hip-hop collective who helped to introduce their sound to the UK masses, with their fusion of garage, grime and hip-hop bringing them a number one slot with 21 Seconds as well as a BRIT Award. Expect mayhem on the stage and on the floor.

The action is as ever presided over by the legend himself, Jonny Bongo. It’s true that Bongo’s Bingo has to be seen to be believed – the show mixes the traditional elements of bingo with dance-offs, rave intervals, plenty of heckling, audience participation, endless hands-in-the-air anthems and of course winning prizes too, from Henry Hoovers to actual cold hard cash. It’s a sublimely chaotic experience, and predictably unpredictable – no two shows are ever the same, yet there’s a familiar thread of distilled mayhem orchestrated by Jonny, with magic running through each and every Bongo’s Bingo.

Organiser Joshua Burke explains: “We’ve had a crazy last few weeks, including everything from going to Snowbombing which was an insane adventure, then our 2nd birthday weekend in Liverpool was amazing fun, and now we are going to Dubai in a couple of weeks too! We know this show is going to be special – we have brought some amazing special guests to Bongo’s Bingo already, and So Solid Crew are going to have the Albert Hall going crazy!”
