For the first time in history, the entire cast of The Breakfast Club is coming together for a reunion—and it’s all going down in Chicago.

Ally Sheedy, Anthony Michael Hall, Emilio Estèvez, Judd Nelson, and Molly Ringwald are all appearing at C2E2, the Chicago Comic & Entertainment Expo, which kicked off on Friday.

According to C2E2 organizers, this marks “the first and only time ever” that all five original cast members will be reunited in the Windy City. The weekend is already underway with autograph sessions kicking off the celebration.

The C2E2 website lists scheduled signing sessions for Sheedy, Hall, Nelson, and Ringwald, with autographs priced between $60 and $70, and photo ops ranging from $80 to $90. Although Estèvez doesn’t appear on the official autograph schedule, he’s listed as a guest for all three days and will be signing in the “autographing area.”

As for appearances, Hall is expected to be there all weekend, while Sheedy, Nelson, and Ringwald will be joining fans at McCormick Place on both Saturday and Sunday.

According to the posted itinerary, all four will be signing autographs from 12:40 p.m. to around 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, with another session later that day at 4:40 p.m. They’ll be back at it on Sunday as well, with signings scheduled for 12:30 p.m. and 2:50 p.m.

Fans can also look forward to a special panel featuring the cast, set to take place Saturday morning at 11 a.m.

“Welcome to C2E2, Emilio Estèvez!” the convention announced via X back in March. “For the first and only time ever, the full main cast of The Breakfast Club is reuniting in Chicago this April to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the film. Emilio (all days) joins Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy (Sat-Sun), Anthony Michael Hall and Judd Nelson (now all days!). Don’t miss this exciting and rare opportunity.”

While Sheedy, Hall, Nelson, and Ringwald—who portrayed Allison Reynolds, Brian Johnson, John Bender, and Claire Standish—have previously appeared together at fan conventions, Estèvez’s involvement (aka Andrew Clark) makes this a truly special gathering of the entire cast.

And really, what better city for this moment than Chicago? After all, The Breakfast Club was filmed just outside the city in Des Plaines at the former Maine North High School, which also famously popped up in John Hughes‘ Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.
