Drag Queen Bingo, it’s the entertainment of the moment and a guaranteed good time by all. For hen dos, parties, office events and just about anything else, it’s the fabulous over-the-top experience not to be missed. If you’re wondering what all the fuss is about, keep reading, we’ll have you on board in no time.
Drag queen bingo is a fabulous and energetic twist on the traditional game of bingo. Typically hosted by superb drag queens, players mark off numbers on their bingo cards as they are called out spectacularly. The drag queens act as hosts, calling out the bingo numbers in their own unique, and often humorous style, all whilst interacting with the audience, telling jokes, performing lip-syncs, and showcasing their extravagant costumes and makeup. It's a perfect mix of bingo, comedy, and drag queen entertainment!
We’ve all heard of RuPaul’s Drag Race, the energetic, glamorous and downright fabulous darling, show. RuPaul herself has won eight Emmy Awards making the show the most-awarded reality competition show in history and igniting a global love and acceptance of the drag arts. However, even before the success of RuPaul, drag artists had been well-known in bars and clubs across the globe performing and perfecting their craft.
According to the Oxford Dictionary, the word “drag” has been around since 1388, but wasn’t used in connection with elaborate performing until the 19th Century. This concept of ‘drag’ likely originated in the late 1900s theatre scene, where male actors would don petticoats to portray female characters. These garments often trailed along the floor, leading to the term "putting on your drags".
In a recent study from the University of Northampton, findings suggest that Drag shows increase the happiness and mental well-being of audiences and can help ease anxiety and depression. Over time, drag queen bingo events gained popularity beyond the LGBTQ+ community, attracting a diverse audience looking for a fun and unconventional night out. Today, drag queen bingo is not only a source of entertainment but also serves as a platform for fundraising and community building, with many events supporting LGBTQ+ charities and organisations.
At HOMETAINMENT, we have a fabulous drag queen bingo experience to elevate any office or home party. Featuring Charlie Hides, you can expect a charismatic, funny and expert drag queen, impersonator, actor and comedian. He is known for his presence on season nine of RuPaul's Drag Race and hosts his own Youtube Channel. From his outrageous costumes, larger-than-life personality and hilarious repartee, expect to be entertained from start to finish!
Similar to traditional bingo, a number is chosen and guests will mark off numbers on their bingo cards. Be prepared for multiple opportunities to win some amazing prizes and don’t expect to be bored (or shy)! Charlie’s Drag Queen Bingo experience hosts a fabulous dynamic atmosphere where you will be treated to the best of Drag Queen royalty.

Drag queen bingo events often foster a sense of community and inclusivity, bringing together people from diverse backgrounds to enjoy a night of fun and laughter. What more could you want from your party or office event? Claire Leer, a professor at Northampton University says that Drag events “promote an atmosphere of acceptance and openness, creating a safe space for attendees which is non-judgmental".
Many drag queen bingo events serve as fundraisers or build awareness for LGBTQ+ charities, communities and organisations. Not only this, company culture is key to employee retention and building an atmosphere of respect and nurture is crucial. Research shows that 94% of executives believe a strong company culture is key to business success.
