Description
YEGPIN Pinball and Arcade Expo is Canada's biggest pinball event. Our state-of-the-art location has the capacity to now hold over 250 pinball machines, 50 classic video games, and other game room goodies that will be set up on free play for everyone to enjoy the entire weekend. YEGPIN will strive to showcase the best pinball and arcade collections in the city and provides you with four fun-filled days of playing pinball machines and video arcade games.
YEGPIN has four days of competitive pinball competitions for all ages and skills levels. YEGPIN hosts a total of 5 tournaments over the course of the 4 day event including the signature Stern Circuit event called YEGPIN Match Play Championship - this is the biggest pinball tournament held in Canada annually and the YEGPIN Women's Match Play Championship - one of the biggest women pinball tournaments in the world. Other tournaments include the Classics Charity Championship, Best Card Championship, and the Youth Canadian Pinball Championships. All details on the show and full details of the tournaments are on our website: www.yegpin.com
- The event will be hosting four certified IFPA (International Flipper Pinball Association) pinball tournaments for which you will receive WPPR points (World Pinball Player Rankings). This will be a great, friendly competition that is open to novice and advanced players alike, in which, we offer beautifully designed trophies and large cash prizes to the winners.
- One of those pinball tournaments is an opportunity for our non-profit show to give back to the community that supports us. On all four days we will be putting on the Classic Charity Pinball Tournament where a portion of the proceeds raised will be donated to a charity of our choice. Last year we raised $5,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation, LFS Memorial for Suicide Awareness and Project Pinball this year all proceeds will again go to support local and pinball related charities.
- As if that weren’t enough, we have a space for a full licensed area, and our games room is open late on Saturday night for our YEGPIN After Dark celebration where we turn down the lights, crank the music, dress up in 80's and 90's grub and play some silverball.
- There will be special rates set up for hotel guests for all of our out of town guests, see website for all discount codes.
- Find out how get in FREE for the entire weekend by volunteering for the event, or win your very own pinball machine when you bring a game!
- T-shirts, extra tournament entries, and other merchandise from our vendors will be available for sale at the show. You can find details on the pricing for the event on our admission page on the website.
- There will be a silent auction for a chance to buy pinball, arcade and game room related items, different groups of merchandise will be put out on the Thursday – Saturday with all proceeds going back to support this event.
- YEGPIN is an international show and was attended by over 1,600 people in our last show. Our goal is to have the biggest show in Canada, and one of the best in the entire world !!!
