Asheville Pinball Museum

The Asheville Pinball Museum is an amusement arcade in downtown Asheville featuring more than 75 playable pinball machines spanning from the 1960s to the 2000s. The machines fill two large rooms arranged by era, inviting visitors to step up and experience each one firsthand.

The museum opened in 2013 inside a former retail space with a mission to preserve pinball machines from across five decades. The collection shows how these machines evolved as technology improved and design styles changed over time.

The collection reflects the evolution of electronic entertainment, demonstrating how pinball machines influenced gaming design and mechanical engineering over multiple decades.

Visitors pay a single admission fee for unlimited play during operating hours, with reduced rates for young children. The location is central and easy to reach, with convenient parking nearby.

Each pinball machine displays an information card with its manufacturing date and mechanical specifications. These labels help visitors understand how the technology and design evolved across different eras.
