History

ColossalCon was started in 2002 and began as a one-day convention in Strongsville, Ohio. [8] In 2003, it became a three-day convention and moved to the Holiday Inn Cleveland South Independence in Independence, Ohio where it remained until 2007, except for 2005 when it was located in the Embassy Suites. [9] [10] [11] The convention for 2008 moved to the Hilton Cleveland East / Beachwood in Beachwood, Ohio, and moved again in 2009 to the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center in Sandusky, Ohio where the convention has been located since. [12] [13] During the 2010 convention a tornado hit the area surrounding the venue, hotel and convention guests were sent to the basement for shelter, and the venue suffered no damage. [14] The convention is considering an attendance cap due outgrowing Sandusky's hotel room capacity. [15] In 2017, the water-park remained open extra hours for the convention. [16] Nostalgiaconventions.com LLC (ColossalCon) filed a complaint against Colossus Con in 2017 for using a name too close to ColossalCon. [3]

ColossalCon 2020 was moved from June to September due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but was later cancelled. [17] [18] [19] [20] The convention had an attendance cap of 7,000 in 2021. [21]
