Membership
So, you wanna flip some silverballs, meet fellow pinball fanatics, and become part of something special? The Austin Pinball Collective isn’t just a place to play: it’s a community-driven, volunteer-powered, flipper-filled paradise.
Step 1: Visit During Public Hours (or Come With a Friend!)
The easiest way to check us out is to swing by during our public hours – See the calendar. This is the perfect time to meet members, tour the space, and see if this pinball wonderland is right for you. If you already know a member, they can bring you anytime as their guest!
Step 2: Get the Lowdown
Before you join, we’ll give you a quick rundown of how things work. You’ll:
- Read through our Policy and Code of Conduct (don’t worry, it’s not a snooze-fest. Just the rules that keep our community awesome).
- Tour the Space so you can see all the machines, hangout spots, and cool pinball history we’ve packed into 4,000 sq.
- Ask Any Questions! Whether you’re wondering about game rotation, volunteer opportunities, or what our highest-scoring member eats for breakfast (spoiler: it’s probably just coffee), we’ve got answers.
Step 3: Sign Up and Start Playing!
- Once you’re ready to commit to the flipper life, membership is immediate upon payment. Just talk to the on-duty volunteer, pay on-site, and boom! You’re in! (We have both quarterly and annual subscriptions available, too.)
- Now you have access to the Collective and can start enjoying freeplay pinball, meeting fellow members, and even getting involved in our volunteer-run departments (totally optional, but highly encouraged!).
A Few Things to Know:
- We grow through word of mouth, so while the public hours draw visitors, we love it when new members are referred by friends!
- Guest access is limited to public hours or when attending with a member. Please don’t show up solo outside of our operating hours.
That’s it! Easy, fun, and full of flipping action. So what are you waiting for? Come check us out during volunteer-staffed hours, or any event, and see what the hype is all about!
