Oslo Pinball Club

Oslo Pinball Club (Norwegian: Oslo Flipperspillklubb) is a non-profit association founded in January 2015 by pinball enthusiasts in Oslo, Norway. Its stated purpose is to promote interest in and engagement with pinball among its members and the wider public in Oslo. The club is based at the Hausmania kulturhus in central Oslo, where it shares premises with the hacker collective Hackeriet at Hausmanns gate 34. Members and visitors gather at least ten times a year for socializing, playing, competitions, and machine maintenance (known locally as 'mekking'). The club owns a collection of seven pinball machines, including Star Wars (Stern 2017), Deadpool (2018), Eight Ball, Judge Dredd, Black Rose, Demolition Man, and a restoration project called 'Spirit of 76'. Beyond physical meetups, the club maintains a chat channel on the Multiball.no Discord server, a Norwegian initiative to connect the country's pinball community on a shared communication platform. As a volunteer-run association, Oslo Pinball Club operates as a private, member-driven organization rather than a commercial manufacturer or retailer. It serves as a focal point for pinball hobbyists in the Norwegian capital, hosting regular events that combine casual play with competitive and technical activities.

Oslo Pinball Club was established in January 2015 by a group of pinball enthusiasts in Oslo, Norway. The founders aimed to create a formal association that would promote interest and engagement in pinball for members and interested parties in the Oslo area. From its inception, the club has been based at the Hausmania kulturhus, a cultural center in central Oslo, where it shares facilities with the hacker collective Hackeriet at Hausmanns gate 34. The club organizes at least ten member meetups per year, providing opportunities for socializing, playing, competing, and maintaining the club's machines. Over time, the club has built a collection of seven pinball machines, including modern titles such as Star Wars (Stern 2017) and Deadpool (2018), as well as classic machines like Eight Ball, Judge Dredd, Black Rose, and Demolition Man. A restoration project named 'Spirit of 76' is also part of the collection. To connect with the broader Norwegian pinball community, the club maintains a dedicated chat channel on the Multiball.no Discord server, a project designed to unite pinball enthusiasts across Norway on a common communication platform. The club remains a volunteer-run, non-profit organization focused on fostering pinball culture in Oslo.
