Mixtape bingo

Creating a mix tape is a nostalgic journey. Whether it’s a compilation of 80s hits, your favorite movie soundtracks, or that guilty pleasure playlist you don’t want anyone to know about, mix tape bingo adds a fun twist to the experience. This guide will show you how to play standard mix tape bingo and a few variations to keep things interesting.

How to play mix tape bingo

1. Create your bingo cards: Use Bingo Card Creator to generate custom bingo cards. Populate the squares with song titles, artists, or even specific lyrics that might come up in the mix.
2. Set up the playlist: Choose a playlist, whether it’s one you’ve made yourself or a themed playlist from a music streaming service.
3. Hand out the cards: Share your custom cards with your players. Each player gets a unique card with different song titles and artists.
4. Start playing: Hit play on your playlist. As songs play, players mark the corresponding squares on their cards.
5. Call bingo!: The first person to mark off a row, column, or diagonal yells “bingo!” Check their card against the playlist to confirm the win.

Add some surprise to the game by having each participant bring their own mix tape or playlist. This way, no one knows what’s coming next, and it makes marking off those squares even more exciting!

Different ways to play mix tape bingo

1. Theme-based bingo

Choose a theme like “90s Hip Hop” or “Movie Soundtracks” and fill your bingo cards with related song titles and artists. This version works well for themed parties or get-togethers.

2. Lyric bingo

Instead of song titles, fill your bingo cards with popular lyrics. Players have to listen closely for those lyrics to appear in the song before they can mark them off. Great for testing your lyrical knowledge!

3. Artist bingo

Create cards with the names of artists. Every time a song by that artist plays, you mark it off. This version is ideal for broader genres where the same artists pop up frequently.

4. Challenge bingo

Make the game more interactive by adding challenges to the cards, like “sing along for 10 seconds” or “dance to the chorus.” When a player completes the challenge, they get to mark that square off.

5. Speed round

Limit the game to a certain number of songs, like the first 20. Whoever has the most squares marked off at the end wins. Perfect for short breaks or when time is limited.
