New Southern Pinball Expo in Orlando


The Southern Pinball Festival to be open for November 18th 19th & 20 2011 in Orlando, Florida.

A group of pinball collectors in Florida have announced their first Southern Pinball Festival, where they plan on having over 100 pinball machines spanning the history of pinball in America, ranging from an 1933 World’s Fair Jigsaw bagatelle to the brand new modern pinball machines.

Leave your quarters at home because all the pinball machines will be set up as Free Play. After you pay for your admission, you can play any of your favorite pinball machines until your heart’s content.

A professional pinball tournament is being held all three days of the show so you can test your pinball skill against your rival competitors, if you succeed Top cash prizes and SPF trophies will be awarded.

The Southern Pinball Festival will be taking place at the Maitland Civic Center just North of downtown Orlando.

Also, the Amusement industry’s premiere convention, IAAPA, will also be going on in Orlando the week of the show. Link here: http://www.absoluteexhibits.com/IAAPA2011?gclid=CKLxtsedgaoCFYHs7QodKDGAyg

The Southern Pinball Festival strongly encourage attendees to make the most out of the trip to Orlando by also planning to visit the many theme parks and sites in the area such as the Walt Disney theme parks, Universal Studios, Sea World and others. Even LegoLand Florida will be open in nearby Winter Haven by then! (so you have MANY excuses to convince your wife and family or friends to make the trip for the week before/after the ‘pinball show’!)

Little Shop of Games one of their attending sponsors. Curly & Jimmy will be on hand to have pinball parts and will even have several brand new Stern pinball machines on-site, available for sale. If you don’t see what you need, they will be glad to order it in for you. Link here: http://www.littleshopofgames.com/

“We hope many of you will be able to attend and help us make this a success that will grow in the future! SUN! PINS! FUN!”
