The Arcade club is Europe’s biggest free to play experience where you only pay for entry and play all the arcade games for free without inserting money to play. As well as this, the Arcade Club takes pride in maintaining, restoring and preserving arcade machines. They have three locations with one being in Leeds at Abbey Retail Park, Newcastle at the Ela Mill in Bury and Blackpool at Bloomfield Road all having arcades in them but different layouts, games and distinct vibe, with the one in Newcastle being a Victorian mill with four floors, each having something unique. The first floor is filled with arcades and a gaming lounge with food and drinks. While on the second floor it has room for tournaments and events while also having pc, multiplayer gaming areas, a pinball area and a massive 185 broadcast stage for live events.
You can book or you can walk in, but its recommended to book if its on a busy day since they only have a limited number of walk-in slots on busy days. You can book tickets on their website. Also, you can select which location you want tickets for. There is a monthly pass that you can get where you pay monthly and get access to the arcade for that month.
