Greater Manchester is home to the biggest arcade club in Europe

If you’re looking for a fun-filled day out, look no further than Arcade Club in Bury.

With four floors of arcade machines, pinball and games consoles, this entertainment hub is the largest arcade in Europe, boasting an impressive collection of over 400 classic and modern games machines, consoles and VR experiences that cater to all ages.

The arcade was founded by a computer nut named Andy Palmer who worked at a PC repair shop while collecting machines and cabinets before opening the first version of the club in a warehouse in Haslingden charging people £10 for four hours.

The concept proved incredibly popular so he looked to move his collection to a bigger site.

Arcade Club is now based in a beautifully refurbished old English mill, located just outside of Manchester.

Since its establishment in Bury, Arcade Club has been a popular attraction for all generations, attracting visitors from far and wide – from 50-year-olds to 18-year-olds, and everyone in between. You can even bring your family along for a fun day out, as Arcade Club offers family-friendly food and drinks, ranging from pizzas, hotdogs and nachos, to beers, pop and soft drinks, all at reasonable prices.

Don’t worry about refuelling during your frenzied arcade gaming sessions – food and drink options are available throughout the venue, ensuring that you have the energy to enjoy everything the club has to offer.

You’ll find retro gaming from the 80s classics like Pac-Man and Mario Bros. to 90s beat’em ups like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter, plus modern-classics such as Time Crisis and Guitar Hero.

General admission for an adult is £17, while children under 16 get in for just £9. Families may avail of the family pass (two adults and two kids) for only £43. Once you’re inside of course all games are free to play. The monthly Arcade Club pass, which offers unlimited access to all games and attractions for one, two or three months is also available for both adults and children to purchase, so you can visit and play to your heart’s content without any additional costs.
