Bingay hosts awarded Outstanding Contribution to Charity award


Bingay has just taken out the title of Outstanding Contribution to Charity award at the naugural SX Pride Week Gala Awards

Each week, every Tuesday, Mitzi and Naomi can be heard calling out numbers, in their trademark Bingay catchphrases. Add to this singalongs, hilarious stories, and side-splitting penalties, it easy to see why Bingay has become a Sydney institution.

Over 500 Bingays have been held, not to mention countless Big Bingay editions, and the event has toured regional New South Wales and interstate. To date, it is estimated that Bingay has raised funds in excess of $750,000 and this year, in September, Bingay will celebrate ten years.

Bingay is Mitzi's take on bingo, but it has a very big twist! Expect weird rules, singalongs, penalties and hilarious stories with prizes that range from the silly and camp to great theatre tickets or restaurant vouchers. It is a night for friends to get together and have fun on a 'school night', that also ends by around 11pm so you can have a great night out without feeling like you can not face work the next day! Free snacks and food are served each week.
