At SPIN, we are the original ping pong social club, and our flagship began in New York City about 15 years ago.

Company Branding and Event Upgrades

You can customize your event space with company branding across paddles, balls, and table decals featuring your logo and company message. At a client event, guests play with paddles and balls that carry your logo.

SPIN also offers creative upgrades, including a surprise DJ, branded paddles, and a pro exhibition match in the middle of the event.

Food and Drinks from the Scratch Kitchen

Executive chefs cater SPIN events on site from a scratch kitchen of shareable, snackable plates, so you do not need a separate caterer.

Full-service bars pour craft cocktails, premium spirits, and other drinks.

Menus label avoids-gluten, vegan, and vegetarian items. The kitchen uses dairy, eggs, wheat, soy, nuts, fish, and shellfish, so guests should tell the party planners about allergies.
