Christmas Bingo Calls

Christmas is a time for merriment, mince pies, and cheeky bingo fun. Whether you're hosting a family get-together, an end-of-year work party, or just fancy a night in with your mates, Christmas bingo is a perfect way to bring everyone together.  

And what’s better than playing bingo online and practising festive bingo calls with a holly jolly twist? So, get comfy in your jammies and let’s dive into some creative Christmas edition bingo lingo.

What is Christmas bingo?

Christmas bingo works just like the classic game but with a sprinkle of festive charm. Each number is paired with a festive phrase, adding a bit of sparkle and giggles to your bingo night. Think of it as your standard bingo game but dressed up in its best Christmas jumper. 

Whether you're shouting "legs eleven" or a specially tailored Christmas call like "carollers welcome in", this game could spread joy faster than riding a sleigh on Christmas Eve’s snowy street.

Tips for hosting a cracking Christmas bingo night

Deck the Halls 

Create a festive atmosphere with Christmas lights, baubles, and tinsel galore. The more sparkle, the better! 

Snacks on Standby

Mince pies, pigs in blankets, and Christmas pud are a must. Don't forget to add some seasonal treats like candy canes, gingerbread cookies, and a selection of festive chocolates for everyone to nibble on throughout the game. 

Prizes and Surprises

Little festive goodies like chocolate coins or mini crackers make perfect prizes. Why not wrap up a few fun novelty gifts, like reindeer antlers or Christmas socks, for extra giggles? 

Add Music

Play Christmas tunes between calls to keep spirits high. Create a festive playlist with all the holiday classics – from "Fairytale of New York" to "Last Christmas" – and let everyone join in on the sing-along. 

Set the Scene

Dim the lights and light some candles to create a cosy, wintery vibe. You could also set up a Christmas tree in the room to give everyone that magical, festive feeling. 

Dress Up

Encourage your guests to wear their best Christmas jumpers or even a full-on Christmas tree costume. You could even hold a "Best Dressed" competition with a small prize for the most creative outfit. 

Bingo Caller with Flair

Appoint a cheerful bingo caller to keep the energy up. Add in a little drama by calling out the numbers in fun, theatrical ways – maybe even with a megaphone for extra effect! 

Games and Activities Between Rounds

To keep the party atmosphere going, have some mini-games or Christmas-themed activities to fill any gaps between bingo rounds. You could play a quick round of "Christmas Charades" or have a "Name that Christmas Carol" quiz.

Christmas bingo is the perfect way to bring some extra sparkle to your celebrations. From "three French hens" to "snowmen looking great" these festive calls will have everyone laughing and feeling the holiday cheer. So, grab your bingo cards, pop on your best Christmas jumper, and let the games begin! 

Remember, it's not about who wins or loses – it's about making memories that'll last longer than a tin of chocolates. Happy holidays everyone!
