Bingo Loco, the touring bingo-rave party show, returns to the Arklow Bay Hotel on Friday, 2 October 2026. It is not a normal bingo night: expect a hosted stage show mixing bingo rounds with dance-offs, lip sync battles, throwback anthems and confetti, aimed squarely at a big night out rather than a quiet game of numbers.
Bingo Loco runs as a live hosted show rather than a straight bingo night, built around rounds of bingo interrupted by dance-offs, rave rounds, lip sync battles and prize giveaways, with a live host driving the room rather than someone quietly calling numbers. The Arklow date is part of the brand’s regular Irish tour, which has previously stopped at the Arklow Bay Hotel, so this is a returning event rather than a first-time booking for the venue. It is aimed at an over-18s crowd out for a big night rather than a family bingo session. Tickets are sold through Bingo Loco’s own ticketing site rather than the hotel directly, and the hotel’s events page lists it as a ticket-only event with no admission on the door. The hotel overlooks Arklow harbour, so there is a bar and function space built around the show rather than just a hall with chairs.
Arklow Bay Hotel is on Sea Road in Ferrybank, on the north side of Arklow overlooking the harbour. Arklow has an Irish Rail station on the Dublin to Rosslare line, a short taxi ride from the hotel, and the hotel has its own car park.
The hotel looks out over Arklow harbour, so it is worth timing a visit around the town’s waterfront rather than just the show itself. There is more to see in Arklow and across Co. Wicklow.
