Legendary Wednesday Bingo Night at The HideAway

Win! Every Wednesday

The Bingo Bitch & The Blackout: Why Wednesday Nights Are Legendary.

Forget everything you think you know about bingo. This isn’t a quiet game in a church hall. Every Wednesday at 8:30 PM, The HideAway transforms into Phnom Penh’s most raucous, unmissable party—and it’s completely free. Welcome to our legendary Bingo Night, where daubers dab, drinks flow, and the chance to shout “BINGO!” could win you a cash jackpot. But this is about more than numbers; it’s a weekly ritual where community, camp, and a little friendly chaos collide.
Arrive early to be guaranteed a seat as we do not accept reservations.

More Than a Game: A Slice of LGBTQ+ History

Bingo has a profound legacy in the gay community. For decades, “Drag Bingo” or “Gay Bingo” events were vital fundraisers for AIDS charities and community centers, blending a sense of camp performance with a powerful collective purpose. While our night is a pure celebration, it carries that spirit of joyful, defiant gathering. It’s a space where you can be unapologetically yourself, surrounded by friends and friendly faces, all united by the thrill of the next called number.

Meet the Master of Ceremonies: The Bingo Bitch

No legendary night has a quiet host. Our events are steered by the one and only Bingo Bitch—a charismatic, quick-witted maestro of mayhem. Part cheerleader, part comic, and all attitude, the Bingo Bitch doesn’t just call numbers (English and Khmae); they curate an experience. With a sharp tongue and an even sharper eye for dabbers trying their luck, they keep the energy electric, the laughs loud, and the rules firmly in place. They’re the glue that turns a game into a show.

How to Play & Win: The Rules of Engagement

The beauty is in the simplicity. Entry is free—just grab a card and a dauber.

  • The Prizes: We run three full games a night. Win Any 1 Line, Any 2 Lines, or the coveted grand prize: A Full House (marking every number on your card).
  • The last full house winner is offered 4 sealed envelopes to choose from; they include prizes of a bottle of gin, whisky, vodka and the cash prize
    • The cash prize starts at $20 and increases every week by $5 until it is won
  • The bingo bitch ball sack. If 2 or more players shout bingo they delve into the bitches ball sack which contains 10 numbered balls. Highest ball wins the prize
  • The Vibe: It’s fast-paced, social, and fiercely competitive in the best way. Tables cheer together, groan in unison, and erupt when someone leaps up with a winning card. The air-conditioned comfort is a welcome respite from the Phnom Penh heat, making it the perfect mid-week escape.

Why This Isn't Just Another Bar Game

In a city of fleeting trends, our Bingo Night is a weekly institution. It’s where expats and locals mix effortlessly, where regulars have their lucky spots, and where first-timers are instantly welcomed into the fold. It’s the antidote to the mid-week slump—a guaranteed injection of laughter and camaraderie. You come for the free game and the chance to win, but you stay for the community that gathers every single Wednesday.
So, if you’re searching for the most fun you can have on a hump day in Phnom Penh, your search is over. Grab your crew, secure your seat early, and get ready to dab your way to a potential jackpot. Just remember: when the Bingo Bitch is on the mic, anything can happen.
