How does a typical bingo day run at BJ’s Bingo Leigh?

BJ’s Bingo Leigh opens from 11 am every day, with afternoon bingo getting underway at 12 pm and the evening games starting at 6:15 pm, seven days a week. Each session is split into several parts with short breaks in between, and Big Jim’s Jackpot usually appears towards the end of the main run of games. If you stay for a full afternoon or evening you are generally there for around two to three hours from first number to last.

How much should I expect to pay for a bingo session here?

Based on recent price lists, paper sessions at BJ’s Bingo Leigh are generally about £15 – £20 depending on the day and whether you choose the afternoon or evening session. Electronic Bingo Bee deals sit in clearly marked tiers from roughly £15 at the lower end up to around £80 for the largest packages.

Can I just turn up and play or do I have to register?

BJ’s Bingo is a members-only club, but joining is free and very quick.

What can I do from a Bingo Bee tablet at this club?

At Leigh the Bingo Bee tablets are more than just electronic tickets. You can load credit onto your Bee account in advance, then use the device to buy into your bingo games, order food and drinks from your seat and keep tabs on what you are spending. For bingo itself, Bee packages give you more tickets than the equivalent paper deal, with the device handling the marking and flagging wins while you follow the caller and enjoy the session.

What buses stop near BJ’s Bingo Leigh?

BJ’s sits virtually opposite Leigh Bus Station and Spinning Gate Shopping Centre, so almost any bus into Leigh town centre will work. The bus station is served by frequent services including V1 on the guided busway from Manchester, plus routes such as 126 towards Astley, Boothstown and the Trafford Centre, 516 and 517 for Atherton, Westhoughton and Middlebrook, 582 for Bolton and 609 and 610 for Wigan and local estates. Once you get off at Leigh Bus Station, it is only a 1–3-minute walk across to Ellesmere Street for the club.

Do I need to queue at the bar to order food or drink?

You do not have to leave your table every time you want something. The club runs a pub-style food and drink offer with table service, so you can order from your Bee or wave a member of the team over.

About

BJ’s Bingo Leigh is a large and modern club situated on Ellesmere Street by Tesco Extra. Parking won’t be an issue, with over 200 spaces available. If you travel by bus, Leigh’s central bus station can be found just across the street, providing easy access to the club from the surrounding area and beyond.

Of course, you can play slots or enjoy food and drink at the venue, but bingo is the main attraction. Games are offered every afternoon and evening, seven days a week. They can be played on paper or electronic tablets. Better yet, all packages include tickets to Big Jim’s Jackpot. This progressive prize grows every day until it is won by calling a full house in 50 numbers or less on the gold page.

Various other promotions and jackpots run throughout the month, too, not to mention a busy calendar of social events. Full details can be found on the official website or the club’s Facebook page.

FAQ

The venue is set up with two distinct spaces. The main bingo hall is aimed at players who like a quieter, more traditional session with the focus firmly on the game. The bingo lounge has a more social feel, with players sitting at booths, chatting between calls, ordering food and drinks to the table and sometimes enjoying late-night entertainment or music.
