GET YOUR TICKETS QUICK

ALRIGHT YOU LOT… THE WAIT IS OVER!
With such a HIGH INTEREST in this event,

We’ve finally finished polishing, tweaking, planning and probably questioning our sanity but
BALLS, BEATS & BRAINS IS READY TO GO!

And trust us… this isn’t your grandma’s bingo night. 😏

📅 FRIDAY 11TH SEPTEMBER
📍 BAR151 – 151 Thompson Ave, Cowes
🚪 Doors open 6PM
👀 Eyes down 7PM
💰 $15 ENTRY

BUT HERE’S THE CATCH…

🎟️ WE ONLY HAVE 40 TICKETS!
That’s it. FORTY.
Not 41. Not “we’ll squeeze you in.” FORTY.

To lock in your spot, payment MUST be made over the phone BEFORE THURSDAY 9TH SEPTEMBER.
📞 5952 2605

Why do we need payment beforehand?
Because we want the CASH READY TO GO for the BIG POT at the end of the night!
And yes… someone is leaving with CASH!

If there are tickets left on the night, they’ll be CASH ONLY — so don’t rock up expecting to tap your card and magically get a ticket.

WHAT'S ON THE MENU?
BINGO – because we still like a bit of old-school action.

TRIVIA BINGO – time to find out who actually knows stuff… and who has just been confidently guessing their whole life.

MUSIC BINGO – sing it, recognise it, scream the answer… whatever gets you closer to that win! 🎶

AND… because apparently 3 games weren’t enough…

MINI GAMES THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT!

These will give you more chances to get yourself into the running for that BIG CASH POT!

FOOD:
Loaded baked potatoes will be served because apparently bingo makes people hungry.

BAR:
Fully stocked. Fully loaded. Ready for you.

🔞 ADULTS ONLY!

And finally…

🚨 BRING A SPARE PAIR OF DRAWS. 🚨

Because with the amount of laughing, yelling, singing, cheating accusations and questionable dance moves we’re expecting…

YOU’VE BEEN WARNED.

We WILL be running some kids' game days during the school holidays, so the little legends will get their turn too!

🔥 40 TICKETS.
🎱 3 GAMES.
🎶 MUSIC.
🧠 TRIVIA.
😂 MINI GAMES.
💰 A BIG CASH POT.
🍻 A FULLY LOADED BAR.
🥔 LOADED POTATOES.
🔞 ADULTS ONLY.

What could possibly go wrong?

Probably everything. And that’s exactly why you should come. 😂

📞 CALL 5952 2605 TO SECURE YOUR TICKET!

This week The Island Marketplace Collective showcases
🌿 BLOEM.🌿
not your standard florist.
Yes, she makes your everyday bouquets. 💐
Yes, she does weddings, sympathy flowers and special occasions.
But there’s a little bit more to BLOEM…
Karin is a qualified florist with 20+ years of experience, so behind all the colour, creativity and quirky ideas is plenty of knowledge, experience and a very good understanding of flowers. 😉
Think quirky plants, pots, hampers, dried flowers, artificial blooms and fresh flowers — turned into something a little unexpected. 🌸🪴✨
From a thoughtful bunch of flowers to a funeral tribute, a wild wedding installation, a planty gift hamper or something completely “I have no idea what I want, but can you make it amazing?” — she is here for it. 😜
Fresh. Dried. Faux. Plants. Pots. Flowers. Quirky & unique
and always a little bit different.
🌿That’s BLOEM. 🌿
come visit Karin's stall at 151 Thompson Ave Cowes
but in the mean time go to her socials and show your support

Arthaus Tattoo, there goal is to provide an inviting, personalised experience that goes beyond the standard appointment at a traditional tattoo shop.

Through collaboration, they aim to create work that feels both distinctive and genuinely personal.
