About Pinball New York City

Founded in 2010, Pinball New York City is an organization wholly committed to promoting publicly accessible pinball throughout the city. At it’s heart is a co-ed team pinball league where more than 30 teams regularly compete in the city’s best pinball bars. Pinball NYC also hosts parties and events, and our machine locator will help you find all the public pinball machines in NYC. A pinball renaissance is upon us, so put down that joystick, step away from the internet, and join us as we play the Silverball.
