1) Pick a theme and a timespan. If you're not sure of people's interest, you could post a query first and ask, especially if you have several possible themes or times in mind.
2) Make a post detailing the parameters of the event. This needs to include at least the beginning and end dates, along with the theme. It helps to mention any unusual bingo patterns, communities, or prompt lists that would suit the event.
3) Keep an eye on the activity. Ideally, answer questions about the event, encourage people to participate, cheer for the ones who post a bingo, etc. If an argument breaks out, remind people to play nice. You might want to do a little promotion in other relevant venues, but it's not required.

Then this is a perfect opportunity to try! It's a low-stress project in a low-traffic venue. Most participants are already experienced at this kind of event. If there are mishaps, nothing vital will be disrupted. And then you'll have experience.

Correct.

Pretty much what I've done with Bingo Valentines:
1) Pick a theme and a timespan. If you're not sure of people's interest, you could post a query first and ask, especially if you have several possible themes or times in mind.
2) Make a post detailing the parameters of the event. This needs to include at least the beginning and end dates, along with the theme. It helps to mention any unusual bingo patterns, communities, or prompt lists that would suit the event.
3) Keep an eye on the activity. Ideally, answer questions about the event, encourage people to participate, cheer for the ones who post a bingo, etc. If an argument breaks out, remind people to play nice. You might want to do a little promotion in other relevant venues, but it's not required.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need more.
