“After an exciting month of voting, we’re delighted to congratulate the winners of this year’s WhichBingo awards. The awards are one of the annual highlights for the UK online bingo industry, and because the winners are mainly decided by players’ votes, they are particularly coveted by the brands lucky enough to be declared winners.
The popularity of online bingo has soared in the last eighteen months during the pandemic, so it was also pleasing to see that hosting our ceremony virtually hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm of players who voted, with another huge number of votes cast again this year. With the game continuing to attract a much wider demographic of players than ever before, these awards enable us to recognise the hard work of all the best UK bingo sites around today.”
The award winners were revealed in a virtual ceremony for the second time due to continued uncertainty around live events. They were announced by WhichBingo Social Media Presenter Charlie Shakespeare and filming took place at the beautiful Buzz Bingo venue in Tooting, London.
