Mystic Krewe Pinball Parlor New Orleans!

NOTICE: The MK Pinball Parlor will be temporarily closed from Aug 22, 2017 to Sept 5, 2017 while our host, Kebab, takes their Summer break for employees. We will re-open Wed, Sept 6, 2017. Sorry about the inconvenience!

The Mystic Krewe currently manages two separate arcades in the NOLA area. One of them, called the “PinChurch” is a private venue for members of the Mystic Krewe (We regret that due to various reasons we can’t open the PinChurch to the general public – many of the games are very old and fragile and we lack the resources to operate that space as a commercial/public operation). However, the MKPP (The Mystic Krewe Pinball Parlor) is a public arcade space open to all every day except Tuesdays.

We hope to make more spaces and games publicly available in the future (if you are or know a entrepreneur or restaurateur that is looking for a partnership with someone like us, contact us). Right now, the MKPP is the largest single array of vintage pinball machines in a public space in the New Orleans area.
