(This change will allow for 25% more seats for players. Non-bingo players are encouraged to stand or enjoy plenty of seating on the North Side Music Stage Grounds.)  This change is also intended to allow for a better "listening" experience for bingo players

Lakeville Lions Beer, Brats & Bingo Event Details

• Advance purchase options - Card/Seat Reservations & Card Reservations

1. Advanced Bingo Reservation for $30 guarantees a Bingo card will be reserved in your name  -  advanced purchase includes 4:30  pm early access to grounds for open seating selection.  Advance Bingo Reservation ticket purchase does not include a guaranteed seat.  Seat selection on the Eventbrite App for Advance Bingo Card Registration DOES NOT represent a location, rather represents the bingo grounds other than the reserved seat section.  We have 500 more physical seats than we are selling advance bingo reservations.  Rules changes noted above should ensure all advance sales can locate a seat. (Provided seating rules are followed)
2. Advanced Reserved Seat & Bingo Reservation - Reserved seating available - $50 ticket  allows you to pick your table/seat in advance and have it held until 7:30 pm. This also includes reserving a bingo card in your name.  Ticket includes 4:30 pm early entry.  NOTE: Your seat will be held until 7:30 pm (30 minutes after start of the bingo program).  If you plan to play multiple cards and want a reserved seat, purchase your Advanced Reserved Seat  Reservations (1 per player) and then purchase Advanced Bingo Reservation ticket in the quantity you would like. Advanced Reserved Seat tickets have a  quantity limit of  16 seats/cards per purchase which is equal to a 2 full tables.  Advanced Reserved Seats are by table, with 8 seats per banquet table, 4 per side.  NOTE: The graphic will indicate a seat on each end - this will not happen. Seats will be 4 per side.  Each table is numbered as well as the seats on the table.  It is up to the purchaser to pick the seats via the Eventbrite Seat Map when purchasing - Lions will not work to assist seperated groups - select your seats with care upon purchase.
