What is The Big House?

The Big House is the largest Super Smash Brothers event series in the fall. Since 2011, it has been the go-to annual convention for Smash fans not only in the Midwest, but across the world. Over three days, The Big House runs a singles (1v1) event, doubles (2v2) event, and various exhibitions for Super Smash Bros. 64, Super Smash Bros. Melee, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.

The Big House event is open to all Smash players and fans! Even if you’re not a tournament competitor, we have plenty of side events to participate in at the venue. Keep an eye out for more details in the coming weeks.
