Death By Pinball at Netherworld

The Netherworld will be closed to the public over Easter to make way for a truly terrifying, torturous ritual they call ‘Death By Pinball’

The Netherworld will be closed to the public over Easter to make way for a truly terrifying, torturous ritual they call ‘Death By Pinball’ - An 18 hour pinball marathon, not for the feint of heart. A ‘match play’ event, you’ll be pitted against Netherworld’s gnarliest denizens over many, many rounds until 4am.

In between rounds, you’ll be free to play Netherworld’s many machines or have a quick rest on the ‘stage pit of shame’. A series of side comps on the arcades will be there for you to have a punt at.

Special rewards will be given to those that actually survive the night plus cash prizes for the top 5. Tickets are $100 each and available via http://www.netherworldarcade from the 13th of March.
