Listen to this article:In September, a woman from Telford walked away £50,000 richer after a spontaneous trip to her local bingo hall.
The life-changing win at Globe Bingo in Donnington happened on Saturday, September 7, during the evening session. What made it even more special is that the lucky player hadn’t planned on attending at all. She was convinced to go along by her daughter, who had never played bingo before and wanted to experience it for real, outside bingo sites.
A Globe spokesperson explained:
“It was our winner’s birthday just a few days later, and her daughter, a first-time player, persuaded her mum to come for an early birthday treat and to spend some quality time together. They attended a free bingo session at the Globe, upgraded their tickets for just a few pounds, and ended up walking away with life-changing winnings.”
The winner, who has asked to remain anonymous, said, “Things like this don’t happen to people like me – but it did!”
She said that the first thing she will do with her winnings will be to have a long-overdue holiday, her first in years, before joking that her children already had plenty of suggestions for the remaining cash.
Globe Bingo is a well-established venue on Wellington Road in Donnington, and it welcomes players from across Telford, Shropshire and beyond. The venue, which is part of the Majestic Bingo group, offers the excitement of traditional bingo with a wide range of facilities that have made it a popular destination for both regulars and newcomers.
Open seven days a week, Globe Bingo runs both afternoon and evening sessions, with tickets starting from just a few pounds. The weekly schedules include everything from free bingo nights to big Sunday evening sessions, where prizes can climb to £500. Afternoon sessions typically start around 1:30pm, while evening sessions kick off at 7:30pm.
The hall also houses modern electronic bingo options, with packages available for those who prefer to play digitally. Extras such as the National Game and jackpot stamps give players the chance to win even bigger prizes, and as was proved earlier this month, big wins really do happen.
In order to make life as enjoyable as possible for its players, Globe Bingo offers much more than games. Guests can take advantage of free on-site parking, a bar, a diner serving affordable meals, and a machine arcade. With a cash machine, disabled facilities, and a smoking shelter also available, the venue has everything you could need for an enjoyable bingo night out.
Events such as “Don’t Find the 9” and linked cashpot games provide extra entertainment throughout the week, while loyalty programmes such as Pick 6 give players the chance to collect points and redeem them for drinks, meals, or additional bingo tickets.
To mark the occasion of the big win, Globe Bingo hosted a celebration on Saturday, October 4. Guests on the night were treated to complimentary bubbly and a lively atmosphere. The event featured three £500 house prizes, which means that there were even more chances for players to walk away with big wins.
As an added highlight, the new general manager, Aaron, has promised to buy a National Game ticket for everyone attending. This means every guest has been automatically entered into one of the country’s biggest linked games and had the chance to walk away with a £50,000 jackpot of their own.
The team encouraged both regulars and first-time visitors to come along and take part in the celebration of the win at Globe Bingo in Donnington. With tickets priced at £10, the evening was busy, unforgettable, and offered a huge amount of fun.
