A Big Bingo Fan Visited Every Club 3000 Venue in the UK

Club 3000 • 10 November 2026

Customer from Doncaster recently completed a personal challenge to play bingo in all of our clubs!

Antony Coupe only meant to see how his local compared. Two years later, he had been to all 24 of our operating venues across the UK.


It never started out as a tour and it took two years to complete, and at every club, he says, the welcome was consistently great.


Antony Coupe, 37, manages a local social club. Bingo started for him the way it starts for a lot of people: afternoons with his grandad and he has loved it ever since. Doncaster is his local, and the club he keeps going back to.

“I’ve just finished visiting every Club 3000 Bingo club in the country and I’ve been doing it for two years,”

He added: “My local is Doncaster and I love going there. Steve Wood, the manager, has been brilliant and encouraged me all the way. Club 3000 Bingo is nothing like the other operators. At Doncaster, the prize money and the atmosphere are unbelievable. So, I thought, why not see the rest?”


He started in the Northwest, then Leeds, a new club he calls amazing. Blackpool and Preston followed.

“Every club has its own character, but the prize money and the customer care are fantastic in all of them.”


From there, the trip grew on its own. Two weeks ago, he visited every Scottish club. Steve had let the managers know he was coming. Antony says he was treated like royalty, and that plenty of customers assumed he was a celebrity. After Scotland, he nipped down to Wales!

“None of this was planned. Once I started, I didn’t want to stop. I loved every visit, and I was made so welcome.”

“The prize money is always the best. What is consistent in every club is that unique, friendly atmosphere and the facilities are second to none. They just know what customers want.”


When he got home, the Doncaster club marked the finish, by donating some money to Antony to say thank you. He is pictured with Steve Wood, general manager at Doncaster.


Steve Wood said: “Antony has been one of our regulars for years and he is such a great ambassador for us. I was delighted to help him plan his trip and we were thrilled when he finished...and to be able to show our appreciation.”
