Bingo Madness - Drag Bingo

Lazydaze and TS Productions are teaming up for Bingo Madness, a drag bingo afternoon at Lazydaze South Austin on Sunday, August 23. The whole thing is hosted by Venus Rising and The Trans Era, who'll be calling the numbers and keeping the energy up across four rounds of bingo. Between the games, there are spotlight performances from Iggy Bank and Cambrian Explosion, so it's as much a drag show as it is a bingo session.

Lazydaze describes the afternoon as a new twist on the drag bingo experience, and the venue helps set the tone. It's their self-described #1 coffeeshop for cannabis enthusiasts, and that's exactly the vibe they're leaning into here. The whole session is strictly 21+, and everyone gets a free joint when they walk through the door. There are prizes up for grabs throughout the four rounds, so you've got something to play for beyond the bragging rights.

The afternoon runs on a California sober model: you bring your own food, and cannabis and coffee are sold on site. If you're looking for a full meal, you'll want to pack it or stop somewhere before you head in. General admission seating is first-come, first-served, so if you have a favorite spot in the room, it pays to get there a bit early.

Tickets are $15 for general admission and $20 for VIP, with the VIP option including an extra surprise gift. The session runs from 4:20 PM to 6:20 PM, so it's a late-afternoon thing that wraps up well before dinner.
