ThunderCon Levels Up: A New Home for a New Era 🎉⚡

Change is in the air—and this one comes with a serious upgrade.

After listening closely to your feedback (yes, we really do read it all!), ThunderCon is thrilled to announce that we’ve found a brand-new home at the Superior Inn Hotel & Conference Centre. We’ve officially partnered with their incredible team to bring you the best ThunderCon experience yet.

We Heard You 💬

Over the past year, our community told us what you loved, what you wanted more of, and where ThunderCon could grow. You asked for improved flow, better accessibility, more comfortable spaces to game, panel, cosplay, shop, and hang out—and a venue that could grow with us.

So we listened. And then we leveled up.

Why the Superior Inn? 🏨✨

The Superior Inn Hotel & Conference Centre gives us the space, flexibility, and amenities to enhance everything that makes ThunderCon special:

  • More room to play – expanded spaces for tabletop, panels, vendors, and interactive experiences
  • Better attendee flow – easier navigation so you can spend less time searching and more time geeking out
  • On-site accommodations – because rolling from your hotel room straight into con mode is elite-tier convenience
  • A collaborative partner – their team is just as excited as we are to build something amazing together

This partnership isn’t just about a new building—it’s about creating an experience that feels smoother, bigger, and more immersive from the moment you arrive.

Same ThunderCon Heart, New Power-Up ❤️⚡

While our location is changing, the soul of ThunderCon remains exactly the same: a welcoming, inclusive, community-driven celebration of fandom, creativity, and connection.

Expect the same passion, the same chaos (the fun kind), and the same dedication to making ThunderCon a place where everyone belongs—just with a shiny new backdrop and some exciting upgrades.

The Adventure Continues 🚀

We can’t wait to open the doors of our new home and share what we’ve been working on with you. This move marks the beginning of a bold new chapter for ThunderCon, and we’re so glad you’re part of the party.

Get ready to explore, play, cosplay, and celebrate with us at the Superior Inn Hotel & Conference Centre—where ThunderCon’s next era begins.

Stay tuned. The hype is just getting started. 💥

SuvwI’ ’ej jup quv—quvDaq majaQ. Farewell to our friend, P.E.

It is with profound sadness that we announce that ThunderCon has lost a beloved member of our family. We offer the family and friends of Poul-Erik Binderup our heartfelt thoughts and prayers.

Whether you knew him as Poul-Erik, “Pool”, K’Tal or P-E for short, he was an integral part of ThunderCon over the past 10 years.

Providing support, enthusiasm and creative talent that entertained attendees, especially for the Klingon Young Warriors Academy, where he manufactured the foam daggers and led the activity during the convention to the delight of all.

We will miss you, your smile, and the many adventures you embarked upon with us.
