Ocean Terminal has agreed a long-term lease with Club 3000 Bingo, the UK’s largest independent bingo operator, which will see a new purpose-built, state-of-the-art club open at the centre next year. 

Once the new club is built, Club 3000 Bingo will move from its current Edinburgh venue in Manderston Street to the 27,500 sq ft unit on the ground floor of the Leith waterfront shopping centre.

The family-run business is investing an estimated £5m in the new club. It forms a part of Ocean Terminal’s £250m redevelopment as a ‘town centre’ for the local community. The masterplan will see the centre reconfigured, alongside new homes and public realm.
