A lucky East Lancashire resident has won £12,000 at Buzz Bingo.

The winner won the cash prize at Buzz Bingo in Burnley and plans to use the winnings to celebrate their 40th birthday in Las Vegas.

The lucky local, who wishes to remain anonymous, is a regular bingo player and visits Buzz Bingo Burnley with their partner two to three times every month, and says they’ve never won anything so significant.

Sarie Flaherty, general manager at Buzz Bingo Burnley, said: “We couldn’t be happier for our lucky winner and their fantastic win.

"Everyone was cheering from their seats – it was such an exciting moment.

“We can't wait to celebrate on Saturday, May 13, with the £12,000 free bingo party our winner has unlocked. We'll be making even more winners right here in our club.”

Chief operating officer at Buzz Bingo, Stevie Shaves, said: “The atmosphere in club when there’s a win is always incredible, and we’re delighted to see one of our lucky members win £12,000 on the Our House Jackpot Game at Buzz Bingo Burnley.

“Overall Buzz Bingo players win more than £2 million per week in bingo prize money and we love to celebrate every one of them with our amazing community.”
