Funland
Just five minutes from your room at The Ocean Front at Seaside, you’ll find one of the town’s most iconic attractions: Funland Arcade. A local favorite since the 1930s, Funland has entertained generations with its unbeatable blend of nostalgic charm and cutting-edge thrills. Whether you’re visiting Seaside with kids, friends, or just your sense of adventure, this family-friendly arcade is the perfect spot to play, laugh, and make memories.
Step inside and you’re instantly surrounded by the buzz of Skee-Ball, the flash of pinball machines, and the beat of Dance Dance Revolution. Funland’s extensive game selection spans decades—from retro favorites like air hockey and NBA Hoops to modern hits like Virtual Rabbids VR, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Super Mario Kart. It’s an ideal destination for multigenerational fun, where grandparents can show off their classic arcade skills and kids can dive into today’s latest immersive games.
Fascination: A Blast From The Past
A local favorite that perfectly captures Seaside’s vintage vibe? A quirky, crowd-pleasing game called Fascination. Inside Funland Arcade, 40 vintage-style tables fill the Fascination parlor. Each player sits at the end of a table and rolls a small rubber ball toward a grid of 25 holes. Each ball that lands in a hole lights up a corresponding spot on the backboard. The goal? Light up five in a row—just like bingo—before anyone else does. The first player to complete a row wins a Fascination coupon, redeemable for fun prizes.
With fewer than a dozen Fascination parlors left in the country, Seaside’s arcade is truly something special. This game dates all the way back to the 1920s, when it was a staple at seaside resorts and boardwalk amusement parks. Over the decades, more modern (and admittedly louder) games began to take over arcades. But here in Seaside, we’ve kept the tradition alive. Funland’s Fascination tables are well-maintained and beloved by generations of guests who return year after year just to play.
Located right at the corner of Broadway and Columbia, Funland is in the heart of Seaside’s lively downtown, surrounded by shops, attractions, and great eats. After a few rounds of games, fuel up just steps away at Fultano’s Pizza, a casual favorite for hot slices and cold drinks.
Guests of The Ocean Front at Seaside often rave about how Funland adds that extra spark to their beach getaway. It’s more than just an arcade—it’s a beloved part of Seaside’s history and a place where smiles are just part of the game.
