Emporium

Phone: (702) 854-6367
Found amidst the neon glow of AREA15 is Emporium, a glowing event space that has all the fixings of an arcade and more. While some Las Vegas arcade bars focus strictly on arcade cabinets, this space provides an even larger array of classic arcade games, like skeeball and air hockey. Plus, they often feature live music, DJs, and art displays, and you can even opt to host an event of your own. (Pro-tip: Enter on the West side to ensure you always get free entry to Emporium, even if AREA15 is charging a cover fee.)
The Nerd
Website: https://thenerd.com/
Address: 450 E Fremont St, #250, Las Vegas, NV 89101
Phone: (702) 575-8486
The Nerd is a video game and cosplay bar located in the heart of Downtown Vegas’ Neonopolis. Unlike most other arcade bars, this one includes a mechanical…well, not quite a bull, and bowling lanes so that the competition can really heat up. The space was inspired by Comic-Con and has even been known to sell authentic memorabilia, so fans might even be able to take home their favorite fandom pieces.
Pinball Hall Of Fame
Website: http://pinballmuseum.org/
Address: 4925 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas, NV 89119
Phone: (702) 597-2627
The Pinball Hall Of Fame is a beloved staple in the Las Vegas community, known for their charitable contributions as well as the stunning spectacle that is their warehouse. In 2021, the venue’s address changed and the amount of available space doubled as a result, meaning even more pinball action is calling your name. Primarily focused on classic pinball machines from decades past and spanning over 25,000 square feet, this museum is a pure pinball non-profit, and “fun is mandatory.”
