In the 1950’s the Shipley family first started entertaining the crowds at showgrounds across the Midlands. The larger than life ‘Big Jim’ Shipley built up a mix of amusements, rides and traditional fairground attractions that proved a huge success.
The family business went from strength to strength and in the 1960’s and 70’s Big Jim’s eldest sons, Harry and Jon, entertained their customers in a different way by opening Amusement arcades and Bingo clubs throughout the country.
Fast forward to today and the Shipley Brothers operate three of the biggest and best bingo clubs in the UK. Named BJ’s Bingo in honour of their father ‘Big Jim’, their venues in Leigh, Birmingham and Reading are leaders in service, standards and facilities. Above all, BJ’s Bingo clubs offer BIGGER, BETTER BINGO!
Our bingo clubs are fun and friendly offering an exciting mix of games, food, drink and entertainment.
Membership is free, and you can play straight away. There are three bingo hall venues across the UK in Birmingham, Leigh and Reading. So, come along, join in the fun and feel the love with everyone’s favourite game. BJ’s Bingo offers a fun night out like no other.
