Mecca Bingo in Ayr is hosting a week of Christmas cheer in June to make up for lost time.

As part of a weekend of National Bingo Day festivities on June 27, Mecca Ayr is hosting Junemas on Friday, June 25, a unique Christmas event to reclaim last year’s celebration and to restore the thrill of moments spent together.

This will be followed by a summer of missed moment events in Mecca clubs.

Customers will have the opportunity to get in a merry spirit and enjoy Mecca’s very own Christmas traditions with full Christmas decor, mince pies, Christmas cocktails and a best Christmas jumper competition.

There will also be Christmas crackers with plenty of secret Santa surprises and all of your favourite Christmas tunes.

Finally there will be an all important bingo game in support of children’s charity, Variety.

Junemas marks the start of a whole weekend full of excitement, as the UK’s first ever National Bingo Day takes place on Sunday, June 27.

This new, iconic day celebrates all things bingo across hundreds of bingo clubs in the UK, not just Mecca.

On that day, two guaranteed national winners of £50k will be announced.

Christopher Morrice, General Manager at Mecca Bingo Ayr, said:“We are thrilled to host this special and exciting weekend of events, giving a chance to our customers to catch up on missed moments – Merry Christmas everyone.

“With the entire nation being in lockdown last Christmas, many did not get the chance to celebrate like they normally would, so we are determined to turn that into a nicer memory.

“And with National Bingo Day’s opportunity to win life changing jackpots, we can’t help but imagine what our customer’s next Christmas could look like. “

Mecca will continue to employ extensive safety measures at the Ayr hall.

The uniquely large and spacious bingo halls and lounges provide a reassuring way to socialise safely, with mask-wearing throughout the venues and hand sanitiser readily available.
