LIFELONG AIDS ALLIANCE IS PROUD TO HOST THE 16TH SEASON OF GAY BINGO.

Lifelong is preparing for another unforgettable season of Gay Bingo – each evening promises to be a wild night of outrageous entertainment, costumes and prizes.

Seattle, Washington – For 16 years, Lifelong AIDS Alliance has hosted the wildest party in town, the original Gay Bingo, which has quickly become a popular fundraising event across the country. From January through June, one Saturday night a month, the South Lake Union Naval Reserve building in Seattle (860 Terry Avenue North) transforms into a Bingo event like no other. Gay Bingo typically sells out months in advance, thanks to a large and enthusiastic crowd of over 700 each month.

Gay Bingo is a unique fundraising event hosted by well-known drag queens in the Northwest. Each month boasts a different theme, talent acts, and surprises for guests 21 and over. Gay Bingo is a fun night for everyone, regardless of gender or sexual orientation. Gay Bingo has become an excellent alternative to the typical Saturday night, and is continually gaining popularity as the gold standard destination for women to enjoy a “Girls Night Out.”

Additionally, the extremely popular “Queens For A Day” tables make Gay Bingo an even more memorable event for any guests looking for V.I.P. treatment. A select few enjoy tableside food and beverage service, prime seating locations, and an exclusive gift. This premium ticket option is the perfect way for anyone to get pampered while they play.

This year’s Gay Bingo season schedule will certainly live up to its reputation as a must-attend event:

  • Saturday, January 10, 2009, experience the glitz and glam of the disco days at Studio 54 Gay Bingo: At Gay Bingo Everyone is Famous for 15 Minutes.
  • Saturday, February 21, 2009, set a course for adventure with the game that promises something for everyone, The Love Boat Gay Bingo: Come Aboard, We’re Expecting You.
  • Saturday, March 28, 2009, come one, come all to the greatest show on earth at Over the Top Circus Gay Bingo: The Greatest Bingo on Earth.
  • Saturday, April 18, 2009 the most romantic city in the world comes to Seattle at Gay Paris Bingo: J’adore Gay Bingo.
  • Saturday, May 16, 2009 show up in whatever makes you shine at Bling Bling Bingo: Diamonds are Gay Bingo’s Best Friend.
  • Saturday, June 13, 2009, find something new, something borrowed and something blue at Adam and Steve Gay Bingo: My Big Fat Gay Wedding.
