Dear Friends and Pinball Community,
Your friendly association RETROMANIACS returns to the arena of Pinball competitions and does it with a bang. Since the TBAP 2018 that we organized together with other friends from the spanish pinball scene and since the III Barcelona League of 2019 with Pinball Project, for obvious reasons (read COVID), we have been offline from competitions, but we believe that it has been worth the wait. We wanted to do something special for all Pinball lovers, a tournament in which we live new experiences because it will not be like as others celebrated here in Spain:
We have the immense pleasure of presenting you the 1st CATALONIA'S PINBALL TOURNAMENT – TCAP 2022!!
Thanks to the generosity of our sponsor, Mr. Jaume Sanahuja, we will celebrate the tournament in what will be his new MUSEO DEL RECREATIVO located in Sabadell. For this EVENT, it shares its facilities with us, especially the pinball area with MORE than 320 tables from all times, we are talking about one of the best collections in Europe since most of the pinballs are operational
There we will be able to play both, electromechanical machines, some of them unique pieces, as well as the latest from brands such as Chicaco Coin, Jersey Jack or of course Stern, including the exclusive SUPREME, a machine of which there are very few in the world, we believe that It is the only one in Spain and in the TCAP 2022 you will play it!! We put you a little video of the site, although we already anticipate that there have been aesthetic changes and some new pinballs too
www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-ygQK1FNU0&t=215sWe will also have MORE than 90 pinballs from all eras in Free-Play so you can play until your hands hurt from hitting the flippers so much
There will be a surprise that we are sure you will love and that we will not reveal until you come, for all this, and more: you can't miss it!!
Let's go with the relevant information about the TCAP 2022 - From October 14 to 16 (IFPA Scoring)
Day 14: Open Doors Afternoon from 5:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Designed to enjoy and visit the Museum and play / watch / photograph everything you want. We have preferred not to put any type of Frenzy, PinGolf or similar because we believe that you will enjoy playing at your leisure and seeing this magnificent collection more than competing in a late-night tournament.

LOGISTICS
The venue is located in Sabadell and we have agreed a special price for accommodation at Hotel Arrahona, which is 600 meters away and where you can make a reservation indicating that you are participating in the Pinball Tournament. You will be applied a special price of 69 per night VAT included, book in the mail
[email protected]Sabadell is about 15-20 minutes from Barcelona by car but we do not recommend staying in Barcelona, as it is much more expensive and you have to be at the tournament early, even so you have the IBIS Barcelona Meridiana or the CATALONIA La Maquinista nearby and affordable (Not as much as Arrahona). At 15 minutes from Sabadell by car and about 20 minutes to Sabadell Sud station by Cercanías train.
To come to the site from Sants Station (Barcelona's main station) it takes 35 minutes by train to Sabadell Sud (Rodalies-Cercanías). From the Airport you can take the train at T2 (the shuttle from T1 to T2 is free) to Sants, which is 25 minutes, and then the Cercanías-Rodalies train to Sabadell Sud.
WE ARE WAITING TO YOU ALL!!
