Play Gala Bingo The revolutionary High Five bingo game has been flying sky high over the past week at Gala Bingo as we have just seen 384 of their customers win a share in the rollover jackpot prize on this game, which bagged them all a very nice cash prize of over £1,000 each! The bingo players at Gala Bingo in Falkirk and Newcastle all won a share of the spectacular high five jackpot prize which stood at £689,479.73 on the night.

Hundreds of Gala Bingo players up and down the UK in 65 of their bingo halls have already benefited from the high five bingo game that not only rewards the jackpot winner of the game itself by given them half the jackpot prize that was up for grabs on the night, as all the other bingo players that were playing bingo at the same club as them at the time of their jackpot win will walk away with the other half of the jackpot prize shared equally between them! This means that if the high five jackpot is won in any of their bingo halls all players in the club at the time walk out their doors winners, no matter what.

A massive £7.9 million pounds has already been won by Gala Bingo players and their high five jackpot game only launched due to a change in the gambling act that allowed bingo operators to be able to roll over jackpots in their clubs. Without this change in the gaming act big rollover jackpot games like the high five jackpot would not be available for bingo players to take part in.

Simon Longbottom, who is the Managing Director of Gala Bingo had this to say about their high five jackpot game, "Since developing our unique High 5 offering, we are delivering the best value for our customers, with even more prizes and more chances to win. Last week’s enormous jackpot is just symbolic of the bright future we see for Gala Bingo."

It has to be said that not all players welcomed the news of Gala Bingo withdrawing from the National Bingo game, but the success of their high five jackpot has been compounded by this fact. Gala Bingo are one of Britain’s largest private companies and it is estimated that they pay out approximately £25 million pounds worth of prize money each week throughout their 157 land based bingo halls situated in the UK.
