There is a chance that a pinball event (expo style) will be held at Caves Beach (Newcastle area but 20 minutes south of, or about 1hr 20minutes from Sydney centre) this September 7,8,9 th.

The guys from Pinball and Pizza are the driving force and trying to get helpers, machines to make it be a winner. Luke a local operator is going to aid in a few machines as well as hoping many local pinball's from the Newcastle, Central Coast and even Sydney and further if keen to be part of it.

This sounds like great fun and might well be worth a trip to mexico if it goes ahead.

No details given yet about location but the description of accommodation available may mean the event might be here:

http://cavesbeachsidehotel.com.au/

which is a ideal location.

I have been to trade functions held at the Caves Beachside Hotel before, it's very nice.

A pinball Expo sounds like a fantastic idea! Count me in!

Unfortunately this is bad timing for me - I will be in NSW the following weekend!

Newcastle is where pinball all started for me so I would love to go to a Pinball Expo there!! Will have to keep an eye out for cheap airfares, and try to get a leave pass as well.
