Music bingo › Dutch artist night

Music bingo with Dutch artists: from Hazes to Snelle

An evening around Dutch artists is the broadest music bingo you can build: from the levenslied of Hazes via Borsato and BLØF to Nielson and Snelle. Everyone understands the lyrics, so everyone sings along, which is exactly what you want at a party.

You compose the playlist, so you decide the balance between the generations. We collect the titles, remove duplicates and spread them across unique bingo cards. For an hour of play you need about 110 songs; for ninety minutes about 164.

Build the list per generation

Give every generation its own share of the playlist: Hazes and Froger for the older guests, Borsato and BLØF for the middle group, Nielson and Snelle for the youngest. Spread them evenly and everyone recognises enough to stay involved.

Think in a build-up

Start with the levenslied and the classics, move through the Nederpop of the nineties and noughties to today's hits, and save the biggest sing-alongs for the second half. The energy then rises naturally towards the end of the game.

From playlist to cards

Paste a playlist from Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube Music or Deezer, or type the songs yourself. Printing works with two cards per A4 with cutting lines; if you would rather not print, guests join for free on their phone via bingobanger.party with the host's game code.

Levenslied for an older crowd

With an older crowd the classics of the Dutch levenslied work beautifully. Those songs are slow enough to recognise and bring back a memory for most people. Pick a smaller card and a gentler pace: with a pool of around 55 songs you get a 3x3, which plays far more comfortably than a full 5x5.

Or grab the ready-made list

Rather not hunt for songs? The app has Nederlandse bangers waiting, curated and checked for playable previews. Open it, start it, play. Pasting your own playlist still works too.
