The Big House 4 was a Super Smash Bros. Melee and Project M national tournament held in Romulus, Michigan, on October 4th-5th, 2014, hosted primarily by Juggleguy and Strong Bad. It is the most recent in The Big House series of tournament events, following The Big House 3. In addition to featuring professional smashers from the Midwest region such as Duck, Anther, Kels, VaNz, and Darkrain, the tournament also featured powerful out-of-region talent such as Mango, Mew2King, Hungrybox, Axe, Hax, Westballz, KirbyKaze, Plup, Colbol, SFAT, Lucky, Shroomed, MacD, Zhu, Bladewise, The Moon, Darrell, HugS, and Wizzrobe, as well as international talent such as Armada, Leffen, ZeRo, and Professor Pro.

The Big House 4 is the fourth-largest Melee tournament of all time (with 574 entrants) and the second-largest Project M tournament of all time (with 333 entrants); additionally, the event was the largest Midwest Melee tournament in history, surpassing the previous record set by MELEE-FC Diamond in 2007, and the tournament is also both the largest two-day Smash tournament of all time, as well as the largest to run round-robin pools.

The Big House 4 also marks an important ruleset update for Project M; amid growing concerns over average gameplay time in version 3.02, it was the first major tournament to use three stocks in Project M games instead of the previous standard of four.
