Where can I play bingo in Middle River, Maryland?

Bingo is played in venues called bingo halls. Bingo halls can vary a lot! In Maryland, bingo cannot be run for profit, so you are unlikely to see commercial bingo halls within this state.

Your local bingo hall may also be your local church, fire station, fraternal organization, or veterans' club!

What happens during a bingo game?

Bingo is beloved around the world, and it may look fast and complicated, but part of its popularity is due to the fact that it's easy to learn. If you're looking to start playing bingo, you might not be sure where to start, but this simple guide can show you exactly what to expect from a typical bingo game. Arriving early is always a good idea for bingo games. Before the game starts, you'll need to find a seat and get your bingo cards. Bingo cards are 5x5 grids, and in each square will be a number. Every bingo card will be different, with different numbers in the squares. Once you have found a seat, and all the players are ready, the bingo caller can announce the winning pattern. This tells the players which squares on the bingo card they need to mark in order to win the game. Then the game can begin. The bingo caller will draw numbers one by one, announcing them to the players. If you have the number they call, mark in on your card. The first player who marks every box needed for the winning pattern must quickly shout BINGO! This will declare their win and stop the game.
