Pinball
shows are the celebrations of all things pinball. Not only do you get
to play games that you'd never normally see, but you get to meet fellow
fanatics, buy parts, flyers or even entire games and soak up the atmosphere.
There
are some regular shows in the UK; the main Jukebox
Madness show west of London, another in the north of England, and
the Copthorne show near Gatwick. These aren't mainly about pinball,
but they do usually have about a dozen games.
The
Pinball Owners Association aims to have an annual show which is purely
pinball.
Throughout
Europe there is a range of national pinball shows, particularly the
Dutch, German, Belgian and French ones.
The
United States has a number of shows, the main one being held in Chicago.
Here
are the shows we know about - if you know of any others then please
tell us about them here. The
shows are in chronological order. Those shows which have already
happened are shown in light grey for your reference. Their websites
may contain information about their next show.
