Pacific Pinball League Season 21 Schedule

March 11, 2025

The Pacific Pinball League (aka the PPM League) is a fun, social, competitive league for everyone.  All skill levels are welcome, especially first-timers.  We explain all the rules so don’t worry if you’ve never done anything like this before. Just bring your flipper fingers and come ready to have a great time.

Special pricing: Playing in the league is included with admission to the Pacific Pinball Museum. Additionally, there’s special discount pricing of $10 ($12 savings off regular admission) for league participants. If you’re a first-timer, let the cashier know you’re there for league night to receive the discount. PPM Annual Pass Holders are always free.

Quick Facts:

How to Join: Just show up any league night before 7pm. Attend at least 3 league nights to play in the B Division Finals, or 5 nights to play in the A Division Finals. (Players with a high IFPA or Matchplay rating, or at the organizer’s discretion, may be restricted to A Division/5-nights minimum).

Where: The Pacific Pinball Museum, 1510 Webster Street, Alameda. Free parking after 6 PM in the lot behind the Museum.
Public Transportation: From Oakland, take the 51A bus to Webster and Santa Clara (the bus drops off right in front of the Museum). From other points in the Bay Area, take BART to 12th Street and then take the 51A bus.

When: Wednesdays. Play starts at 7PM. You don’t need to attend the first night to join. Join any league night.

Who: Players range from Zoomers to Boomers (20s – 50+), but we have a few teens as well. A typical night has 30 – 40 players. Skill levels range from first-timer to expert, but we’re a social and casual league foremost. Teens must be accompanied by parents.
