The Connecticut Gay Men’s Chorus hosts a monthly Bingomania! at the Annex Club at 554 Woodward Avenue in New Haven, just off I-95. We hope you will join us for a hilariously unique evening of entertainment where you’ll play Bingo for cash prizes as hostess Joan Crawford entertains you with silly contests, fun giveaways and of course, the naughtiest jokes ever told!

Each month has a different theme and many come in costume to try and win our costume contest. No costumes are necessary— just come and enjoy the creativity of others! Your $20 admission includes all of your game cards for the twelve regular games of Bingo. Each regular game has a cash prize of $100 and the final regular game of the night has a cash prize of $200! We also offer three optional Special Games. You can play a Special Game for just $1 per sheet and each Special Game pays a 50/50 cash prize up to $400! You have the chance to win up to $2,500 in Bingo cash prizes each month at Bingomania!
