You are asking for a time that is set by the property, not by this article
Bingo session times at Potawatomi Hotel Casino are published by the venue itself and change by day of week, season, holiday, and event calendar. No independent article can state today's session time without copying the venue's own live schedule, and any number printed here would be stale by the time you read it. What this article can do is show you where the venue sits, what structural factors move a bingo schedule, and exactly which channels carry the current answer.
The venue is Potawatomi Hotel Casino, located on Canal Street in the Menomonee Valley near Downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It is owned and operated by the Forest County Potawatomi Community. The hotel portion has 119 rooms and suites documented in publicly published reference sources, with figures revised as properties are rebuilt and expanded.
Why bingo times are not a fixed fact
A bingo schedule is an operational decision, not a physical attribute of the building. The same room can run morning sessions on one day, evening sessions on another, and no sessions at all on a third. The venue changes session times to match expected attendance, staffing availability, and the rest of its event calendar.
Several structural forces move a bingo schedule. Weekday demand differs from weekend demand. A holiday weekend or a major local event can pull the schedule earlier or later. The venue's own promotions, tournament weekends, or private buyouts can close the bingo room entirely for a stretch. None of these are knowable in advance from a static article.
| Factor | How it changes bingo times |
|---|---|
| Day of week | Weekday sessions often differ from weekend sessions; the venue sets each day separately |
| Holidays and event days | Special hours or full closures may replace the standard schedule |
| Season and weather | Attendance patterns shift with the season, and the venue may adjust session counts |
| Private or promoted events | A buyout, tournament, or venue-wide promotion can preempt the regular bingo calendar |
| Staffing and operations | Session length and start time follow what the property can staff that day |
Where the current bingo schedule lives
The authoritative source for today's bingo time is the venue's own published schedule. Look for the bingo or gaming page on the Potawatomi Hotel Casino website, where the property posts session times for the current period. The venue's guest services desk and the bingo room's own posted signage carry the same information on site.
Map platforms and third-party directory pages sometimes show hours, but those are only as current as the last edit someone made. A third-party page can show a schedule from months ago while the venue has already changed it. For a same-day trip, confirm against the venue's own channel, not a directory listing.
How to read the schedule without guessing
When you open the venue's bingo page, look for the specific date you plan to attend, not a generic weekly table. Many properties list a calendar view or a dated session list. If the page shows only a weekly pattern, treat it as a default and check for a holiday or event notice that overrides it.
Calling the venue is the most direct confirmation for a same-day visit, but the number to use is the one printed on the venue's own contact page, not a number repeated in a third-party article. Ask specifically for the bingo room or guest services and confirm both the start time and whether the session is open to walk-ins or requires advance purchase.
What changes between when you read this and when you arrive
Session times, session lengths, buy-in requirements, and whether bingo runs at all on a given date are all changeable. A published schedule is a plan, not a promise. The venue can cancel a session for low enrollment, move it for a conflicting event, or extend it during a holiday week.
Before you travel, confirm three things: the session start time for your exact date, whether the bingo room is operating that day at all, and whether the session you want is open to the public or tied to a promotion or private event. Each of those answers comes from the venue's own current materials, not from any static reference.

The venue sits at coordinates 43.030418, -87.934822 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The distances below are great-circle measurements, meaning they are straight-line figures as the crow flies. Road distance is always longer than straight-line distance, and this article does not publish road mileage.
| Reference point | Straight-line distance (miles) | Measurement type |
|---|---|---|
| Milwaukee | 1.6 | Great-circle |
| Chicago | 80.9 | Great-circle |
| Detroit | 252.9 | Great-circle |

These figures describe the venue's fixed position relative to other documented points. They do not describe travel time, driving distance, or how long it takes to reach the property from any of those places.
What to confirm before you go
Confirm the bingo session time for your exact date on the venue's own bingo page. Confirm whether the bingo room is operating that day at all, since closures and private events are not always reflected in a weekly table. Confirm whether the session you want requires advance registration or is open to walk-ins, and whether the venue has posted any holiday or event override to its standard schedule.
If you are traveling from outside Milwaukee, measure your own road distance using a mapping tool from your starting point. The straight-line figures above are not a substitute for a route, and no number in this article tells you how long your drive will take.
