FEATURING THE LARGEST ARCADE IN THE WORLD

WHAT IS IT?

Replay FX: Pittsburgh showcases the largest arcade in the world, featuring more than 1,000 classic arcade and pinball machines, plus tabletop and hundreds of console systems ranging from the original Magnavox Odyssey to the XBox One. The event also includes live music, cosplay, a 1,600 square foot virtual reality setup, and a wide variety of pinball and casual video game competitions. The arcade is owned and managed by the Replay Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit foundation dedicated to preserving gaming-related history and technology, making Replay FX: Pittsburgh both a central hub of modern gaming as well as a living history of the arcade, pinball, and associated tech culture.

Replay FX: Pittsburgh includes thousands of games available for the public every day at no additional cost above the regular price of admission.

After 9PM, the Replay FX: Pittsburgh main stage transitions into a live music venue. And since it’s one of the most frequently asked questions, YES, the concessions do sell beer!

Cosplay all four days! Attendees are encouraged to learn about the art, craft and design of cosplay builds. The annual cosplay contest on Saturday is one of the best attended events at Replay FX: Pittsburgh.

The look and feel of the arcade is just as important as the games. Replay FX: Pittsburgh offers a wide range of family-friendly experiences, including face-painting, crowd entertainers, and more.
