Book the 12th to 16th November in your calendars!
IFPA Christchurch are howling with excitement to announce that this year we'll be playing host to the Southern Hemisphere Pinball Championships, as a part of our famous Show Weekend Showdown Spectacular 🐺🌝
We’ll be hosted by our friends at The Pūkeko Centre in Parklands, Christchurch for 5 monster days of IFPA sanctioned competitions and social pinball fun, including the fight for the title of Southern Hemisphere Pinball Champion! 🏆
Book your flights, plan your leave, round up your mates and get this one locked in (or else prepare for an absolutely monstrous case of FOMO) 🙈
Schedule of events will be out soon but, in the meantime, feel free to be old fashioned and contact us direct as to how to make the most of your time in Christchurch and beyond. Ticketing details will be announced in the coming months, but for ONE lucky VIP (Very Important Pinballer) we've got an ALL ACCESS MEMBERS ONLY PASS to the event available up for grabs right now! 👑
This pass gets you into EVERY event throughout the weekend, and you could be the FIRST to lay your filthy little paws on one. Prove you’re an alpha and read how to enter below:
