What is Hijingo?
Hijingo is bingo rebuilt as a production. You sit at a table with an electronic ticket while a host runs the game over a light and laser show, with six rounds building toward escalating prizes, including cash jackpots and holidays. It's the most passive activity in this set and the most theatrical.
The main room seats up to 185 guests. It's a single site, in Shoreditch, and closed on Mondays.
How does it work?
You book a seat at a specific show time rather than an open slot, so arrive at least 15 minutes early; the Lucky Cat Bar opens an hour before the first show of the day if you want to get there sooner. A standard session runs for around two hours across six rounds.
Groups of 15 or more can book the Neko Box, a raised semi-private area with the best view of the stage. If your group is booking as separate parties and wants to sit together, contact Hijingo at least 48 hours ahead; they'll try to accommodate it but can't guarantee it.

What is the food and drink like?
Food covers bar bites, burgers, baos and fries, roughly £5 to £16 depending on what you order, alongside a full cocktail list; plant-based, vegetarian and non-gluten options are marked on the menu, though the non-gluten dishes aren't suitable for coeliacs owing to the risk of cross-contamination. It's separate from the game-entry price, though it can be bundled into a package — see our FAQs below for prices. See the full food and drinks menu for the complete list.

How do you book?
Book online through Hijingo's own site, choosing a specific show time; because seats are sold against a show rather than an open slot, popular Saturday shows sell out early. Game entry is debit card only, since Hijingo is licensed by the Gambling Commission and credit cards can't be used for the game stake, though food and drink can be paid by card as normal.
Full venue hire and private events go through a separate, contract-based process with Hijingo's events team.
