Shayne Ward Ditches the Cobbles of Corrie and the Mic for an ‘Intimate’ Bingo Performance

Ex-Coronation street star and X-Factor winner, Shayne Ward, is set to sing his heart out in an ‘intimate’ show at one of Leicester’s most popular bingo halls this summer. Shayne shot to fame in 2005 when he was crowned as the winner of the second series of the X-Factor. After a few number ones, he ditched the mic in favour of acting…

…Best known for his role as Aidan Connor in Coronation street, the talented performer is set to try audiences new this year, courtesy of Buzz Bingo. The star is heading to Leicester on Friday July 5^th and you can be there!

According to Buzz Bingo, revellers will not only get to sing along with Shayne as he performs his intimate show, but they will also get the chance to win cash – what with many bingo games on offer too.

No doubt his X-Factor winning single and Christmas number one; ‘That’s My Goal’ (which became the third-fastest selling single of its time), will make an appearance at some point during the night, so too will top five single ‘No U Hang Up’ and a number of covers.

Prize-Filled Evening

If an evening of singing, dancing and bingo games (or just the thought of seeing Shayne Ward perform to a small crowd) appeal to you, you’ll want to know the full details; bear with me, I’m just getting to them. To see the award-winning actor and ‘Platinum’ singer perform live, you’ll need tickets…

…General admission tickets for the upcoming event are just £15 – not bad considering you get some of the best bingo games thrown in too. However, for a VIP experience with table service and bubbly, tickets are available for £100 (for a group of four).

Shayne Ward said: “I'm so excited to be returning to the stage and playing three dates at Buzz Bingo this summer. It's a pleasure to be able to perform in such intimate venues and relish the spirit of the local communities in Leicester, Fenton and Peterborough. See you very soon! "

Richard Davies, club manager of Buzz Bingo Leicester, said: “We are so excited to host such a legendary artist at the club, which will be really special and add to the lively atmosphere created and felt by our community every day. We look forward to treating our regular customers, as well as seeing a host of new faces for a brand-new bingo experience.”

You’ll need to be a member before turning up. The good news is membership is free and new customers to the club will get to play for just £10! The address for those looking to make their way to the event; Buzz Bingo, 100 Beaumont Way, Leicester, LE4 1DS.
