Starrcast


Starrcast is a professional wrestling fan convention promoted by Conrad Thompson.

History

Thompson originally had the idea of a fan convention during the NWA Legends Fanfest in 2017, but it was cancelled. Later in December, Thompson pitched the idea to Cody Rhodes and was intrigued by the idea of a wrestling podcast convention. After some talks, Thompson emailed him the itinerary and Cody told Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson and he told Thompson they liked it. The event would be compared to WrestleCon that is held during WrestleMania weekend.
In March 2018, following the announcement of All In, to coincide with the event, Thompson announced he would hold the Starrcast, a fan convention which would feature numerous wrestlers, wrestling personalities and podcast personalities.
On August 29, the full schedule for Starrcast was released. The event, held August 30 to September 2, was produced by Global Force Entertainment on FITE TV.
In January 2019 it was announced that Starrcast would return in conjunction with All Elite Wrestling's Double or Nothing event in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The 2022 Starrcast was held in conjunction with WWE's SummerSlam in Nashville, Tennessee, with the event built around Ric Flair's Last Match.
