Pinball Hall of Fame

About Pinball Hall of Fame

The Pinball Hall of Fame moved into its current 25,000-square-foot home on Las Vegas Boulevard South in 2021, replacing a smaller East Tropicana location. The non-profit collection now numbers more than 700 working pinball and arcade machines, ranging from 1950s electromechanical games to current Stern releases. Founder Tim Arnold buys and restores every machine personally; profits go to local charities (the operation has donated more than $1 million to the Salvation Army of Southern Nevada to date). All machines are coin-operated at original prices — quarters for older games, dollars for the newer ones. Free to enter, bring cash and a willingness to spend an unplanned hour. Closest pinball collection to the Strip and a worthwhile detour for anyone with even a passing interest in arcade history.
