WhichBingo Awards 2022: Voting Now Open for 9th Annual Event
WhichBingo, the UK’s leading bingo review bingo website, has announced that voting is officially open for the WhichBingo Awards 2022, which recognises the nation’s favourite bingo and slots brands as voted by real players and the best operators across a number of special judged categories.
Bingo fans are encouraged to show their support for their favourite bingo brands to see them take home a coveted award, with voting running from now until the 16th June.
The player-voted awards up for grabs include the Best Bingo Site, Best Slots Site, Best New Bingo Site and Best New Slots Site, as well as accolades for the Best Chat Team, and best site under specific providers – Entain, Playtech, Dragonfish and Pragmatic Play.
As well as the user-voted awards, bingo operators can also win one of four special judged awards, which are: Most Socially Responsible Operator, Best Customer Service, Best Mobile Bingo Site, and Best Live Stream Entertainment.
This year, the esteemed judges are Anita Heffernan from WhichBingo, Leigh Nissim, Founder and CEO of Future Anthem, Lee-Ann Johnstone, Founder and CEO of Affiliate Insider, and Christina Thakor-Rankin, Principal Consultant at 1710 Gaming Ltd.
And there’s all to play for, with previous winners of the awards including Mecca Bingo, Sun Bingo, Buzz Bingo, Ladbrokes Bingo and Heart Bingo.
To vote, players are asked to visit the WhichBingo Awards 2022 voting page and cast a vote for their favourite bingo brand or operator across each of the nine categories. Once users have submitted their responses, all that’s left to do is keep your fingers crossed for your favourite brands!
The WhichBingo awards have been running for almost a decade, with this year’s iteration – the 9th annual instalment, being hosted once more as a live event that will take place in Amsterdam on 7th July – being particularly highly-anticipated after the last two annual events were hosted online rather than in-person.
This year’s awards are well worth the wait, with the ceremony hosted at an incredibly immersive, eclectic and very Instagram-worthy venue – The Upside Down in Amsterdam.
The Upside Down is Europe’s largest interactive museum with 25 themed rooms and attention-grabbing decors – which perfectly suits the event, given WhichBingo is known for taking its award shows to the next level.
The awards are hosted alongside the popular iGB Amsterdam Affiliate Conference, which sees iGaming and Affiliate titans share expert strategies and leading products for growth.
Speaking on the launch, Charlie Shakespeare, WhichBingo’s very own awards host, said: “After switching to online awards for the last two years, we resolved to make this year’s in-person event better than ever – and with an amazing venue and leading brands in the running, it’s set to be a night to remember.
“The awards give bingo fans the opportunity to show their support for their favourite bingo providers – which is especially beneficial for brands, given that the WhichBingo awards are considered a real benchmark of quality and reliability within the bingo industry.”
