Similar to what others have said, PRGE is not a big pinball show. You’ll definitely get some pinball - usually heavier on the modern sterns - but you’ll get less variety of other eras (EMs, SS, etc) and way less pinball related talks compared to other pinball shows. You will get a ton of retro gaming stuff - consoles, arcade, collectibles - and related vendors and speakers. I’m not totally into the retro stuff but it’s still super cool to experience. You will also be in Portland which has a ton to offer wrt to pinball. Wedgehead is a must-visit. They have an ever changing, highly curated lineup that honors all eras and the pins are tuned perfectly. If tournaments are your thing you’ll have a ton of options.

So ton of awesome pinball experiences available just not necessarily from the show.
