Play unlimited retro games for just £2 at Nottingham's first old school gaming fair

Get ready for a seriously heavy dose of nostalgia as Nottingham's first old school gaming fair prepares to land in the city centre.

Taking over the Britannia Hotel, in St James's Street, on Saturday, October 5, the pop-up retro fest will give visitors the chance to play unlimited vintage games on consoles including an Atari, classic Nintendo and Sega Mega Drive.

Brought to the venue by review website Itsmuchmore, the free-to-use arcade is just one part of the gaming convention organised by Retro Events.

As well as the opportunity to relive your childhood the fair will also include thousands of retro games, consoles, computers, artwork, imports, accessories, toys, bar top arcades, artwork and plushies for sale.

Entry is £2 on the door with the chance to come and go as many times as you please between 11am and 4pm.

Get Well Gamers UK will also be there with a gaming challenge to raise money for children's charity and also taking donations of games and consoles to give to hospitals around the UK.
