Participation and Game Mechanics

At Bingo With The Diva, participation is a key element of the fun, with The Diva offering live performances and engaging guests in interactive moments. However, Virgin Voyages respects the preference of its guests and ensures that participation is entirely based on consent.

In terms of the game itself, participants are given paper bingo tickets with pre-punched holes, which can be folded over when the corresponding number is called out. The absence of digital ticket machines helps keep the competition fair and exciting, as all participants have an equal chance of winning.
