Synth pop, arena rock and movie soundtrack anthems fill this card of hits released between 1980 and 1989. Play a short clip of each song in random order while players cover the title they hear. It suits class reunions, 40th and 50th birthday parties and retro nights at the bar.
How to play 1980s music bingo
- Set the number of players, then press Print or save as PDF. Each player gets a different card.
- Call items in random order with the built-in caller, or use the printed call list.
- Players mark each called square. The first to complete a row, column or diagonal shouts "Bingo!"
Tip: Ask guests to come in neon, leg warmers or denim jackets and give a second prize for the best outfit. A basket of retro candy or a pair of neon sunglasses makes a fitting bingo prize.

Questions and answers
Are the bingo cards really free?
Yes. You can print up to 10 unique cards per game at no cost, as often as you like, without creating an account. The optional Unlimited Pass is for larger groups.
How do I save the cards as a PDF?
Press "Print or save as PDF". In the print window choose "Save as PDF" as the printer. On a phone, use the share or print option in the preview that opens.
Is every card different?
Yes. Each card is shuffled separately from your list, so players cannot all win at the same time. The more items your list has beyond the number of squares, the more the cards differ.
Can I use my own words?
Yes. Replace the list with your own words or phrases, one per line. A 5×5 card with a free space needs at least 24 items, a 4×4 card needs 16 and a 3×3 card needs 8.
What paper should I use?
Normal printer paper works. Card stock lasts longer if you plan to reuse the cards. The layout fits both US Letter and A4.
