About Us
WHAT IS RPM?
Roanoke Pinball Museum is located on the second floor of Center in the Square - a family of museums located in the heart of downtown Roanoke.
Our mission is to cultivate curiosity in science, art, and history through pinball while preserving and honoring its role in American culture.
The Roanoke Pinball Museum opened its doors in the summer of 2015. We currently feature approximately 60 playable pinball machines with production dates ranging from 1932 to the present day.
Every admission ticket allows patrons to play at their leisure, but also to learn! Pinball players, young and old, will be introduced to the history of pinball, the science behind the game, and have an opportunity to appreciate the color, composition, and overall design of the artwork and features.
We are continually working to expand our offerings, host fun social events, and provide an interactive glimpse into a uniquely American cultural experience. C'mon out and visit RPM today!
