Buff Bingo Drag Brunch

Buff Bingo Drag Brunch is at Lola Lo on Saturday 21 November, part of their regular run of Saturday brunches in Reading. It's an 18+ day-party that builds around drag shows and bingo, with bottomless drinks running through the middle. The whole thing takes about four hours: arrival at 12:00, bottomless service and games from 13:00, bottomless ending at 14:30, and games wrapping up by 15:00, followed by a DJ and dancing until 16:00. A few selected dates start at 11:00 and finish at 15:00 instead, so check your specific booking.

Each session is hosted by and features performances from some of the UK's biggest drag queens, with high-energy, hilarious drag shows running alongside a bottomless brunch of Prosecco, canned beer and cider, cocktails, spirits and mixers, and soft drinks. The 'buff butler' service, which comes with the chance of a lap dance, gives the afternoon its name, and the bingo games award prizes and jackpots worth up to £200. It's pitched as a blowout for hen dos, birthdays, or just a big Saturday with friends, with a complimentary celebratory welcome cocktail for the star of the party and personalised shout-out or fun-pass add-ons available.

One thing to keep in mind: you have to pre-order your food by email at least 48 hours before, so don't leave it until the day. The brunch is held upstairs at Lola Lo, 126-127 Friar St, RG1 1EP, and it's not suitable for wheelchair users.

There are a few ways to do it: the bottomless brunch is £39.95 early bird or £42.95 standard, brunch food only is £29.95, and the day party on its own is £15. If you're planning for later in the year, Christmas-themed sessions run from 28 November to 19 December.
