Celebrating the retro arcade game - pinball!
The brainchild of Rob Berk, who grew up playing pinball. His dream was to recognize his heroes – the pinball designers and artists that created the games he loved. With the help of Bill Kurtz and Mike Pacak, it became a reality taking place in Chicago, the home of pinball. Founded in 1985, Pinball Expo is the longest-running event dedicated to pinball. Grab your admission tickets today and check out the exhibition floor or sign-up to get a tour of Stern Pinball!
