Liverpool: FunnyBoyz Benidorm Bingo Bottomless Brunch

Liverpool’s FunnyBoyz Benidorm Bingo is part drag show, part musical bingo, part noisy group party. The cast runs the room with cabaret, audience games, twerk-offs and lip-sync battles, while the Benidorm theme keeps the mood knowingly loud and cheeky.

I like the clear entertainment value and the unlimited popcorn, which is a fun touch for a three-hour event. I also like the choice of day or evening sessions, plus the chance to add a 90-minute bottomless drinks period. The main catch is that the brunch package must be arranged directly, and seating can affect the experience.

• Musical Benidorm Bingo: Expect songs, numbers and audience participation rather than a quiet, traditional bingo game.
• Drag-led cabaret: The FunnyBoyz cast keeps the action moving with comedy, costumes and crowd work.
• Spin the Wheel: Twerk-offs, lip-sync battles and other challenges make this more than a sit-down show.
• Bottomless option: The 90-minute drinks period includes selected beer, wine, spirits, cocktails and soft drinks when booked directly.
• Party add-on: Birthday, hen party and divorce celebrations can add decorations, photos, shots, fizz and stage attention.
• Important seating tip: Ask about your table before arrival, since some places have limited views or high stools without backs.

A Benidorm party transplanted to Liverpool

The appeal here is simple: you get a drag show, musical bingo and party games in one sitting. It is not designed as a refined theatre performance. It is broad, interactive entertainment where the cast wants you clapping, joining in and possibly being called onto the stage.

That Benidorm angle matters. The humour leans toward holiday-resort silliness, familiar pop songs and playful audience teasing. If you enjoy drag cabaret that talks directly to the room, this should suit you better than a formal stage production. If you prefer subtle comedy or a carefully plotted show, the deliberately brash style may feel less polished.

The event is run by the FunnyBoyz cast under HAUS OF FUN. No individual host names are provided, so you should expect a rotating or group-led performance rather than a named presenter whose style you can research in advance.

What happens during the three-hour experience

The advertised experience lasts three hours, although the published time slots are longer around the main entertainment and food-and-drink period. The daytime session runs from 2.00pm to 5.30pm, with the bottomless timer from 3.00pm to 4.30pm. The evening option runs from 6.30pm to 11.00pm, with bottomless drinks listed from 6.30pm to 8.00pm.

That means you should read the timing carefully. The 90-minute drinks period is not necessarily the entire time you are inside. It is a defined window within the wider event, and the daytime and evening schedules do not follow exactly the same pattern.

The show itself combines several short sections rather than one long cabaret act:

• Benidorm musical bingo
• Drag queen cabaret
• Spin the Wheel
• Twerk-offs
• Lip-sync battles
• Other audience games and comic interruptions

This format helps keep the pace up. If one game does not appeal to you, another section should arrive fairly soon. It also means the atmosphere can change quickly from watching the stage to shouting answers, cheering a contestant or taking part yourself.

Musical bingo with a holiday-resort twist

The bingo section is not presented as a quiet number-calling session. It is musical bingo, so songs form a central part of the game. The Benidorm theme gives it a holiday-bar feel, with the emphasis on recognition, speed and audience noise.

For you, the value is less about winning a major prize and more about having a reason to pay attention and join in. It gives the cabaret a structure and helps people who do not know one another start interacting. The available information indicates that bingo and raffle prizes can be tied to the venue itself, so do not book this expecting a large cash jackpot or luxury prize.

This is also where expectations matter. The show’s comedy and costumes may feel dated or tacky to some people. That is part of the deliberately camp presentation, but it will not suit every taste. I would choose it for a group that enjoys silly humour and audience participation, not for a serious bingo fan seeking a traditional game.

Drag cabaret, twerk-offs and lip-sync battles

The FunnyBoyz cast supplies the main entertainment. You can expect drag queen cabaret mixed with crowd work, music and competitive party games. The Spin the Wheel section can lead to twerk-offs, lip-sync battles and similar challenges.

These parts work best when your group is happy to watch other people take the spotlight, or when someone in your party is keen to join in. You do not need to assume that you will be forced on stage, but the whole format is built around participation. The party package specifically includes stage opportunities, so celebrants should be ready for extra attention if they choose that add-on.

The performance is likely to feel more personal than a standard stage show because the cast addresses the room directly. That can produce the funniest moments, but it also means the jokes may be broad. One person’s sharp comic timing can be another person’s outdated gag. A fair way to judge the style is to see it as a lively bar-style drag show rather than a polished West End production.

What the bottomless brunch actually includes

The bottomless period lasts 90 minutes. Drinks listed for the package include draught lager and cider, red, white and rosé wine, prosecco, house Smirnoff vodka, house Gordon’s gin, house Bacardi, house spiced Bacardi, and a selection of mixed drinks.

The named cocktails include Sex on the Beach, Woo Woo, Cheeky Vimto, Bloody Mary, Tequila Sunrise, Blue Lagoon, Purple Rain, Mojito, Whisky Mint Julep and Aperol Spritz. Soft drinks are also listed.

There is an important booking detail here: the bottomless brunch, including course meals and drinks, must be arranged directly with the organiser. The standard inclusions separately list a glass of fizz and unlimited popcorn, so you should check exactly which ticket or package you are buying before assuming the full brunch is included.

The drinks list is generous on paper, but the practical experience depends on supply and bar service. A bar ran out of mixers and some alcohol during one afternoon, which meant certain orders were unavailable. I would treat the menu as the planned selection, not a guarantee that every bottle, mixer or cocktail will be available at every moment.

The 90-minute limit also matters. Pace yourself. This is a loud entertainment event, and the combination of alcohol, dancing and audience games can become tiring quickly. Soft drinks are included in the listed options, so you can mix your choices rather than treating the timer as a race.

Popcorn, fizz and the basic ticket

Even without the full bottomless brunch, the experience includes a glass of fizz, unlimited popcorn, drag queen hosts and the FunnyBoyz drag cabaret. Popcorn may sound like a minor detail, but it suits the casual party setup and gives you something to snack on during the games.

At the advertised price of $9 per person, the basic ticket can offer good value if you mainly want the show and the group atmosphere. That low price should not be read as covering every extra. Bottomless drinks, course meals and the VIP party package are separate considerations, and the drinks package requires direct contact.

The strongest value comes when you want entertainment rather than a full meal. For a simple afternoon of drag, bingo and games, the ticket covers several different forms of activity. If you expect a substantial brunch, premium drinks and guaranteed prime seating, the final cost may be much higher than the headline price.

Seating can shape the whole afternoon

Seating deserves more attention than it usually gets in a party listing. A poor table can make a lively show frustrating. Some seating places are high stools without backs, and certain views may be blocked by posts or other parts of the room.

That does not mean every seat has a problem, but it does mean you should ask about the layout when booking. If you have mobility needs, back problems or simply want to see the stage clearly, raise the issue before arrival. The activity is wheelchair accessible, but accessible entry does not automatically guarantee the best sightline.

The room can also feel crowded during busy sessions. That is part of the party energy, but it can make ordering drinks or moving around less comfortable. I would arrive with enough time to get settled, especially if your group has a celebration package or specific seating needs.

Birthday, hen party and divorce packages

The VIP Party Package is sold per group, not per person, and is only valid alongside a fully paid standing ticket or a seat in categories A, B or C. Buying the add-on alone will not secure entry.

The package is built for a group celebration. It includes a decorated table with balloons and confetti, a goody bag, one bottle of prosecco, unlimited popcorn, a round of shots, stage photos with the drag queens and extra attention for the birthday or hen party person. Additional bottles of prosecco are listed at £20 each.

The nominated person can take part in the Queen’s Catwalk and receive shout-outs during the event. There is also a surprise treasure chest with a chance to take part in the cabaret shows.

This is useful if your group wants a visible celebration rather than a quiet table in the corner. It can also solve some of the seating worry, since the package promises a table in one of the better areas. Still, check the exact seat category and price before committing. The package is best value when several people share the cost and genuinely want the decorations, photos and stage attention.

Who will have the best time here

I would recommend FunnyBoyz Benidorm Bingo to:

• Birthday groups and hen parties seeking a loud afternoon or evening
• Friends who enjoy drag, camp comedy and audience games
• Groups wanting a low-cost activity with optional drinks
• People who like musical bingo more than formal sightseeing
• Anyone happy to be part of the room rather than quietly watch a show

I would be more cautious if you want a calm meal, reliable access to a specific cocktail, a high-end drag production or a guaranteed unobstructed view without checking first. The show is geared toward groups, and a small booking may receive less attention than a large celebration party.

That last point matters. A group of two can still enjoy the cabaret, but the format naturally rewards people who bring energy and respond to the hosts. If your plan is simply to sit at the back and have a quiet drink, this may not be the right fit.

Practical booking advice for Liverpool

The activity is in Merseyside, Liverpool, and the host language is English. You should be comfortable following fast jokes, song cues and shouted instructions. The experience is wheelchair accessible, though it is sensible to confirm seating arrangements if you need a particular table setup.

Free cancellation is available up to 24 hours in advance for a full refund. You can also reserve now and pay later, which helps if you are coordinating a group and do not yet have every person confirmed.

Before paying, check four things:

• Whether your price includes only the standard experience or the bottomless brunch
• Which seating area you will receive
• Whether the group package is being added to a valid ticket
• Which session suits your plans, daytime or evening

The daytime slot is the natural choice for a birthday afternoon or hen party that wants the rest of the evening free. The evening session works better if you want the event to be the main night out. The published schedules vary, so confirm the exact start and finish times for your date.

My verdict: book it for the party, not the polish

I would book FunnyBoyz Benidorm Bingo if I wanted a cheerful, low-cost group event built around drag, music and silly games. The strongest points are the mix of entertainment, the interactive format, unlimited popcorn and the option to add a substantial drinks package.

I would not book it blindly for a quiet two-person afternoon or if seating and service standards matter more than the show. Ask about your table, confirm the bottomless inclusions directly and keep expectations focused on camp party fun rather than polished theatre.

For a birthday, hen party or playful night out, it has the right ingredients. For the best value, split the cost of a celebration package among a group, but make sure everyone is happy with being noticed, called out and possibly invited onto the stage.
