If you are looking for a fun summer outing in Zurich, GamePlaza is a place well worth adding to your list. Located at Badenerstrasse 569 in Zurich Altstetten, our museum offers a hands-on journey through the world of video games, from arcade classics and home consoles to PC gaming and virtual reality. It is an outing that combines play, discovery, and shared experiences in one welcoming space.
At GamePlaza, visitors do more than just walk through an exhibition. They get to interact with gaming history directly. Our museum includes vintage and modern arcade machines, game consoles, PC setups, and VR experiences, giving guests a broad view of how video games have developed over time. Every ticket includes two hours of unlimited play, which means there is plenty of time to explore and enjoy the museum without feeling rushed.
This makes GamePlaza especially enjoyable as a summer outing for families and groups of friends. Children can try games they have never seen before, while adults often rediscover favorites from their own gaming memories. The mix of old and new creates a museum visit that feels exciting for different generations, and that shared experience is often what makes the day memorable.
A big advantage of visiting GamePlaza is that it is easy to reach. The museum is accessible by tram or train to Zurich Altstetten, followed by a short walk. We are open from Wednesday to Sunday, with extended hours on Friday and Saturday, which gives visitors flexibility when planning a summer visit. Whether you want to come during the day or make it part of a weekend outing, it is easy to fit GamePlaza into your plans.
We also know that a good summer outing should feel relaxed and enjoyable from beginning to end. That is why we focus on creating an experience that is welcoming, interactive, and easy to explore. Some visitors come because they love games, while others simply want to try something new in Zurich. In both cases, GamePlaza offers a mix of nostalgia, curiosity, and fun that is hard to find anywhere else.
This summer, if you want an outing that is playful, engaging, and suitable for different ages, come visit us at GamePlaza. From classic arcade games to VR, there is always something new to discover, and we look forward to welcoming you for a day of gaming history and hands-on fun in Zurich.
