Part drag spectacle, part game night, all heart. Gay Bingo Charlotte is one of the Queen City’s most outrageous and unforgettable nights. Not your typical fundraiser. Think themed chaos packed with laugh out loud moments, wild performances, campy couture, and bingo like you’ve never seen. Each year brings a brand new theme and insane rules. Come in costume, bring your crew, and expect the unexpected.
No cash prizes, just pure joy, unforgettable memories, and a real impact in the fight to end HIV in our community.
Everyone’s invited. LGBTQIA+, straight, 21 or 71. If you love to laugh, celebrate, and show up for something bigger than yourself, you’re in the right place. This is Charlotte’s biggest inclusive party with a purpose.
The real stars? Local heroes. Your neighbors, coworkers, community leaders stepping into wigs, heels, and glitter to raise funds for RAIN’s programs. No pros, just pure community magic. It’s the only night where your boss might be in drag, your grandma’s cracking up at bingo antics, and your whole crew is dancing for a cause.
From humble beginnings in 2000 to 1,500+ sold-out crowds at the Charlotte Convention Center, Gay Bingo has raised over $2.1 million for life-changing HIV services.
Laugh loud. Dress up. Give back. One epic night.
