Seaside Champ is the two day annual open group match play championship organized by Monterey Flipper Pinball at Lynn’s Arcade in Seaside, CA. Seaside Champ III is an IFPA endorsed tournament limited to 72 players.
This year we’re extending the Seaside Sideshows with one additional tournament during the day on Friday. The sideshows are organized independently from Seaside Champ while respecting the schedule of the main event. Thursday Night Strikes is a weekly tournament for the folks who want to show up early and spend time on the games and hang out in the arcade.
Support the event with official merch from DRI374 (t-shirts, hoodies, stickers and more!)

The most up-to-date information about Seaside Champ III will be on Eventbrite. Follow Lynn’s Arcade on Instagram to stay informed and twitch.tv/lynnsarcade for live coverage during the event.
The IFPA calendar entries contain all the relevant information for the Seaside Sideshows, including fees and registration. Entry into the Seaside Sideshows does NOT require a Seaside Champ III ticket as we expect participants playing à la carte.
Important: Seaside Champ III is limited to 72 players. Turf Masters is limited to 40 players. The rest of the Seaside Sideshows and Thursday Strikes is not limited. If you don’t have a Seaside Champ ticket you need to pay admission to the arcade for each day if you’re only playing in a sideshow. Costs are detailed in the IFPA entries.
