Relive Your Childhood At This One-of-A-Kind Nevada Museum
Known for its unique and oftentimes outlandish museums, Las Vegas is home to the Pinball Hall of Fame. Opened in November, 2009, this new, improved, and one-of-a-kind Nevada museum occupies 10,000 square feet—twice the size of the original one— of pinball fun.
The Pinball Hall of Fame is located at 1610 E. Tropicana Avenue in Las Vegas.
The museum was conceived by the members of the Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club to showcase the world's largest pinball machine collection and make it available to the public.
Every game belongs to club member, pinball enthusiast, and veteran arcade operator Tim Arnold, and range from the 1950's through the 1990's - the "heyday" of pinball.
The Hall of Fame is a registered 501c3 non-profit that relies on visitors playing the games, sales of vintage pinball machines, and purchases of "This Old Pinball" repair DVDs sold at the museum. Donations are also made to the local Salvation Army.
All machines are available to play and have been restored to like-new playing condition by pinball enthusiasts who understand how a machine should work.
All older pinball machines are 25 cents per play, and newer 1990's models are 50 cents per play. Truly a far better investment than Las Vegas slot machines!
So, for a few hours of nostalgic fun, come on down to the Pinball Hall of Fame! Operating hours are 11 a.m. - 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday, and 11 a.m. - midnight Friday and Saturday.
This one-of-a-kind Nevada museum is more than simply a museum with do-not-touch displays. Instead, it is a functioning arcade where visitors can relive their pinball-loving childhood by playing all of their old favorites. For more information, please call (702) 597-2627.
