NERG is a yearly event for the North East, bringing retro gaming back to the modern day. Some of the best loved video and pinball machines from yesteryear will be at your fingertips once more to bring those arcade memories flooding back. Relive your childhood over the entire weekend and also introduce younger relatives to how you spent your teenage years....and pocket money!
The Event
After the success of NERG in 2013 & 2014, we're back bigger and better than before. We're in the same location, Gateshead Stadium with a wide variety of retro classics for your enjoyment! The aim is to collect together 100 video arcade machines, 60 pinball machines and 60 consoles. There will also be competitions, fun and games as well as a cosplay.
Goal
Nostalgia is the key. Step back in time for a full weekend of pure old school gaming. Entertain yourself with a choice of over 100 different arcade classics. All set to free play! Retro games such as Space Invaders, Star Wars and Frogger. Gaming exactly how you remember it. But from now, they don't have to be just memories anymore.
Dates & Tickets
Saturday 20th June 10:30am till 7pm

Thanks for posting this!
This event will hopefully be of a similar affair to NERG 2014 with a variance in machines.
I guess the biggest attraction will be your chance to win a Back To The Future pinball machine which is being raffled off for charity. All proceeds will go to the charity too!
I hope you're travelling with a big suitcase as you may need it :-)

You don't have to attend NERG 2015 to be in with a chance to win the pinball machine.
You can purchase your tickets online via the charity website.
