If you're reading this, you're probably a bingo fan and who can blame you? But if you want to see your favourite hobby on a bigger scale, it could be worth checking out the upcoming Ulster Bank Belfast Festival at Queen's 2010.

The annual Northern Irish event is a showcase of different art forms, from opera to dance.

Kicking off on October 15th and spread all over the sprawling city, plenty of its biggest attractions will become the setting for a musical or theatrical extravaganza.

And the one that I'm looking forward to the most is Postcards From Dumbworld.

The chamber opera by award-winning local composer Brian Irvine tells the story of a host of weird and wonderful characters, including a giant rabbit and a spy.

Best of all, it's set in a bingo hall, which means that if you're craving a little dose of the adrenaline rush you get in such a venue as well as taking in some visual masterpieces, you may be able to kill two birds with one stone.

However, if you'd rather get focused on the game, you can just switch on your computer – the Online Bingo Association recently claimed that internet play is getting more popular.

Do you fancy a bit of operatic bingo?

Get your glad rags on, bingo fans.
