Radioactive Pinball Arcade

Radioactive Pinball Arcade is much more than an arcade—it’s an experience built around bringing people together. This family-run retro gaming experience offers a full day of fun for people of all ages. As South Carolina’s largest pinball arcade, visitors can choose from more than 70 new and retro pinball machines, a variety of classic arcade video games, air hockey, skee-ball, foosball and more. Unlike traditional arcades that require quarters or game cards, every admission includes unlimited play. Play by the hour or purchase a day pass for a full day of fun.

Birthday parties and group events available. Tournaments held regularly.

Their Story

After thoroughly enjoying a visit to the Silverball Pinball Museum in Delray Beach Florida, Erin and Eric Edwards decided to purchase their own pinball machine. However, one was not enough. Their collection grew and grew until the next thing they knew, they had 17 pinball machines and were hosting regular pinball parties for friends and family. This sparked the idea of opening their own pinball arcade to share their passion for pinball and gaming with the community.

In August 2023, the Edwards’ opened Radioactive Pinball with around 60 games. Since then they have grown into South Carolina’s largest pinball arcade with more than 125 games including 70 pinball machines and a variety of classic arcade games.

“We wanted to build a community where families, friends, coworkers, and visitors could create lasting memories together. Today, we host birthday parties, corporate events, youth and competitive pinball tournaments, school and church groups, and welcome guests from across South Carolina, Georgia, and beyond. Seeing people introduce their children to the games they grew up playing—or watching new players discover pinball for the very first time—is what makes this journey so rewarding.” – quote from Erin Edwards in South Carolina Voyager
