Grandmas, grab your daubers. You\u2019re wanted in Las Vegas again. Circus Circus is bringing bingo back to the Strip for the first time in more than a decade. The games will start mid-February 2026 in a 225-seat hall in on the casino\u2019s second floor.<\/p>\n

Bingo never really left Las Vegas. Locals still play at off-Strip joints such as Palace Station (which was preceded by the Bingo Palace), Red Rock, South Point, Cannery and the Suncoast (where regulars play in a 9,170 square-foot hall underneath a 17-foot bouncing bingo ball chandelier).<\/p>\n

But on the Strip, the game flatlined when the Riviera closed in 2015 \u2014 after filling the bingo void left by the Frontier\u2019s 2007 closure.<\/p>\n

The lottery-style game of chance \u2014 in which players mark (daub) numbers on a card, aiming to complete a winning pattern and shout \u201cBingo!\u201d to claim a prize \u2014 will never give baccarat or blackjack a run for its money.<\/p>\n

However, paired with Circus Circus\u2019 rare free parking, it promises to lure thousands of older locals back into the fading clown house who haven\u2019t been to the Strip in decades \u2014 in addition to a few nostalgic tourists.<\/p>\n

Accidental Nostalgia<\/h2>\n

The addition of bingo also helps Circus Circus lean into the accidental monopoly it now has on Las Vegas nostalgia \u2014 a monopoly it achieved simply by being one of the oldest non-imploded Strip properties and neglecting to upgrade most of its games for decades.<\/p>\n

The casino, which opened in 1968, is the only one to still feature coin-operated slots south of downtown.<\/p>\n

The new bingo hall will serve hot dogs, pretzels, nachos, beer, and cocktails \u2014 the staples of bingo nights gone by, though at 2025 prices. And thanks to Gen Z\u2019s ironic embrace of retro kitsch, hipsters may even show up for Instagram fodder. (Watch for hashtags like #DauberLife and #BingoIsBack.)<\/p>\n

Six daily sessions will run $30 per pack, covering 10 games: regular rounds, a bonus, and a coverall. Extra packs will cost another $30, while bonus and coverall games can be bought \u00e0 la carte for $10 or $20. Cash prizes start at $50 and climb to $1,500 for coveralls.<\/p>\n

Circus Circus isn\u2019t stopping there. A month after the bingo launch, the casino floor will expand, featuring coin\u2011op slots relocated from Slots\u2011A\u2011Fun.<\/p>\n

Sometimes, stepping forward means stepping backward.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
