Announcing the Allentown Stern Pro Circuit Tournament - May 5th-6th, 2023

Greg “WPPRelli” Poverelli and “Crazy” Levi Nayman are proud to return as your hosts of the 2023 Allentown Pinfest IFPA Tournament, a Stern Pro Circuit Event. All of the hot pinball action will be streamed live via the world class production of Marc Patenaude and Backhand Pinball. We hope to see all of you there, as we vow to continue to improve Pinfest each year!

Tournament format:
A $125 ticket enters competitors into the Main Open tournament and pays for all entries.
Qualifying time is limited to all day Friday, May 5th, 12 noon to 9 pm, and it is a limited entry format. All competitors will play 12 entries on 12 different machines in a tournament bank of up to 20 machines, and all entries will count toward qualifying position. Finals, starting at 9:30 am on Saturday, May 6th, will consist of the top 24 qualifiers in A Division. Finalists will be competing for cash prizes and trophies, plus the glory of being named the Pinfest Stern Pro Circuit Champion! There will also be a B Division finals for the next 16 qualifiers ranked outside the top 250 IFPA rankings as of May 5th, 2023. Please note, the B finals results will not affect the final IFPA submission and are for prizes and trophies only.

Games will encompass all eras of pinball machines.

Finals will be PAPA style four-player group scoring, 4-2-1-0 scoring. Finals matches will be played on pre-selected banks encompassing all eras, ensuring a diverse and exciting finals experience for players and viewers watching on stream. Highest seed has choice of bank. The same bank cannot be selected twice by the same player, and banks may change between rounds. Due to time restrictions tied to this venue, all tiebreakers in finals will be on a "classics" machine. Higher seed has choice of game or order of the classics games.

There is no pre-registration, and this event is cash only. Players are encouraged to arrive as close to the 12 pm kickoff as possible, to ensure that all players get their 12 entries in by the 9 pm cutoff. Everyone will have enough time to complete their ticket, as this format is designed so you can also enjoy the show!

There will be an IFPA sanctioned Women’s tournament, $25 entry with trophies and full cash payout, with limited entry on a number of games to be determined. The finals will also be PAPA format with top 8 qualifiers. Please note due to time restrictions, anyone who qualifies in both the main as well as the women’s finals might have to play both concurrently.
A kid's division for ages 12 and under will be determined by interest at the show. If your kid wants to participate in competitive pinball please let us know!

The PAPA / IFPA rule set will be in effect. All rulings made and decisions by the tournament directors are final.

Volunteers:
The Tournament Directors are seeking volunteers for desk registration and scorekeeping assistance. There will be an exclusive hour of qualifying time available for these volunteers, 9:15 to 10:15 pm on Friday, May 5th. Compensation will also be offered based on the number of hours volunteering.
