The Chattanooga Scale Modelers are hosting Chattanooga ModelCon 2026 on January 9th and 10th 2026. This annual half day followed by a whole day event will be held at the Chattanooga Convention Center. No theme this year, just “Bring What You Like”. Contest models are judged using the Gold-Silver-Bronze methodology where each model is judged on its own merit. There’s also a “display only” area where modelers can display their models without being judged. There will be a large number of vendors bringing model kits, tools, paints, publications, etc. for sale to the public. A raffle will be held on Saturday.
