The Cleveland Gaming Classic (CGC) is Ohio’s largest weekend of everything gaming and more, held annually at the Huntington Convention Center in Cleveland, Ohio. The event runs from September 11 – 13, 2026. This year’s event is forecasted to attract an estimated 12,000+ attendees.
The event includes an onsite arcade, pinball, old school video games, rare experiences, industry guests, live musical performances, cosplay, software developers, manufacturers, eSports, tournaments, tabletop gaming and a massive expo hall with over 300+ exhibitors. This year, Stern Pinball, the world’s largest manufacturer of pinball games, will also be attending CGC and debuting its newest pinball machine: Fallout, based on the popular video game series. Fallout 4, one of the franchise’s most successful titles, generated more than $750 million in sales at launch, and the franchise has since expanded to television with the hit Fallout series on Prime Video, produced by Amazon MGM Studios. This will give attendees the opportunity to experience Stern’s highly anticipated new game based on the iconic franchise before its public release later this year.
This year, CGC is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Pokémon with a legendary lineup of voices behind the beloved franchise, including Eric Stuart, Megan Hollingshead and Rodger Parsons. CGC will also bring together the original voices of Avatar: The Last Airbender for a special reunion featuring Michaela Jill Murphy, the voice of Toph Beifong, and Grey DeLisle, the voice of Azula. Fans will have the opportunity to meet the voices behind two of the most iconic animated franchises and hear firsthand stories from their careers bringing beloved characters to life.
Tickets start at $22 for one-day admission. Kids 10 and under get into CGC free when accompanied by a paid adult. Tickets and more information can be found at www.gamecleveland.com. For more information, call 216-780-1055 or follow Cleveland Gaming Classic on social media.
