The Mid Atlantic Nostalgia Convention has announced some big changes ahead of their 20th anniversary event. The convention’s traditional location, the Hunt Valley Delta Marriott in Maryland, closed down, causing the 2024 convention to be canceled, but the 2025 convention has found a new home! It will occur September 18-20, 2025 at The Sheraton Baltimore North Hotel in Towson, Maryland, which is just 15 minutes from where the old Hunt Valley hotel was located. The convention has also announced some of the celebrities that will be in attendance.
