Sega Park Basildon was an indoor Sega Park arcade located in the Eastgate Centre (Unit 74-75) in Basildon, Essex, United Kingdom. The arcade was situated on the upper floor by the food court.

Very little information is known about this venue. While it opened in October 1997, its final closing date isn't known. However, the Basildon council website lists Sega Park as occupying the unit until around 2005.

The arcade's former unit is now accompanied by a Hairdressing Salon.

Layout

The venue originally housed many video games, although by the time the Leisure Exchange operated the venue, a heavy focus on gambling machines was placed. However, unlike other venues, it retained much of the Sega decor beforehand, such as wall art based on Virtua Cop and Sega Rally.
