Photography, Music Videos & Filming at Sparks
Sparks offers a one-of-a-kind backdrop for photography, music videos, commercials, social media content, and other creative projects. With over 115 pinball machines, colorful lighting, and a nostalgic arcade atmosphere, our facility provides a unique setting that can’t be found anywhere else in Michigan.
In addition to modern productions, the museum can serve as a backdrop for scenes set in past decades. With pinball machines spanning multiple eras and an authentic arcade environment, Sparks can help create the look and feel of arcades from the 1970s through today, making it an excellent location for period films, television productions, documentaries, and historical recreations.
Filming During Business Hours
Photography and filming are welcome during our regular business hours. Please note that the museum will remain open to the public, and other guests may appear in the background of your photos or video footage.
Filming and photography sessions during business hours start at $150.
Private Access Outside Business Hours
For productions that require exclusive access to the arcade, private sessions may be scheduled outside of normal operating hours. This option provides a controlled environment without public guests and is ideal for professional photo shoots, music videos, commercials, and other filming projects.
Private filming and photography sessions outside of business hours start at $300.
Rates may vary based on the length of the session, staffing requirements, and the scope of the project.
