Flashback Weekend

Flashback Weekend is Chicago’s largest and longest running Horror Convention known for our major celebrity guests, innovative programming, and spectacular evening events. We are a horror convention with a deeper initiative – our philanthropic efforts are dedicated to the preservation of the American Drive-In and 35mm film preservation.

Flashback Weekend is held annually at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare Chicago in Rosemont, IL, moments from O'Hare International Airport and just north of Chicago.

Flashback Weekend supports the Horror Film Industry
Flashback Weekend believes that a horror convention should benefit the legacy of horror and the film arts. For this reason, all net proceeds from Flashback Weekend go to the preservation and operation of the Midway Drive-In, located in Dixon, IL.

Flashback Weekend dedicates its philanthropic efforts to:

  • The preservation of the American Drive-In

  • Paying tribute to the “Drive-In” era of horror films

  • Providing a theatrical outlet at the Midway Drive-In for new independent horror films.

  • Maintaining a venue at the Midway for the screening of 35mm horror films
