757 Card Shows crosses to the Peninsula on Saturday, October 10, 2026 for a show at Virginia Peninsula Community College in Hampton. The promoter runs most of its calendar in Norfolk and Virginia Beach, so a Hampton date is a genuine convenience for collectors in Newport News, Hampton, Yorktown, Williamsburg and Poquoson who otherwise face a tunnel crossing to reach a decent show. Expect a strong local turnout because of it.
The floor follows the promoter's usual formula, which is a broad collectibles show rather than a narrow one. Sports cards anchor the room: MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, UFC, boxing and soccer, modern and vintage, raw and graded. Dealers bring PSA, SGC, BGS and CGC slabs in cases, binders of singles, monster boxes to dig through, sealed hobby and retail wax, and vintage material from the 1950s through the 1980s. Pokemon is a major secondary category with sealed product, singles and graded cards. Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece and Lorcana usually have vendors. Comics, action figures, Funko Pops, vintage toys and hobby supplies fill out the remaining tables.
Doors open in the morning and the show runs through mid-afternoon as a single Saturday session. Admission is free and parking is free, consistent with every 757 Card Shows event. There is no advance ticketing, no VIP tier and no early-bird fee. Children are welcome at no charge, and vendors routinely keep dollar boxes and repacks aimed at younger collectors.
The college campus offers ample free parking and an indoor, climate-controlled space with real restrooms, which is a step up from the fairground and bingo hall venues common to regional card shows. Access from Interstate 64 is direct, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby if you want to break for lunch and return.
Who should attend: Peninsula collectors of every stripe, families looking for a free Saturday activity, dealers scouting fresh walk-in material, and anyone with a collection to sell who wants several competing offers in a single afternoon. The promoter frequently arranges autograph guests and on-site grading submission drop-off at its larger dates, so it is worth checking the schedule before you go in case either is happening here.
Tips for the best experience: arrive at the door if vintage is your target, because raw vintage is the first thing to disappear. Bring cash and small bills. Keep a want list sorted by sport and year. Walk the entire room before you buy, since pricing on identical cards varies widely from table to table. If you are selling, sort and price your material in advance and research recent sold comps so you can evaluate an offer on the spot. Bring a bag or box for what you buy, since not every vendor supplies one.
