Tidewater's largest and favorite collectibles show returns for its fall edition on Saturday, October 24 and Sunday, October 25, 2026, at the Virginia Beach Fieldhouse. Hosted by 757 Card Shows, the region's dominant card show operator, this two-day flagship event packs roughly 275 vendor tables into the massive indoor sports complex at 2020 Landstown Center Way — making it the biggest single gathering of dealers, collectors, and hobby inventory in Hampton Roads all year.
The scale means depth in every category. Sports card rows run from prewar and vintage baseball through the newest basketball and football releases, with heavy graded inventory from PSA, BGS, and SGC and plenty of hockey, UFC, boxing, and soccer mixed in. Pokemon has a huge footprint — singles, slabs, sealed product, and Japanese exclusives — alongside Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Lorcana, and Dragon Ball Z. Beyond cards, the fall Fieldhouse show is known for comic books, vintage toys, action figures, Funko Pops, memorabilia, and hobby supplies. Past editions have featured multi-guest autograph lineups spanning NFL, MLB, and pro wrestling names, with JSA on site to authenticate signatures; watch the operator's page for this year's guest announcements.
Hours follow the show's established weekend format: doors at 9:00 AM both days, running until 5:00 PM on Saturday and 3:00 PM on Sunday. Admission is free, parking is free, and the Fieldhouse's full-service grille keeps you fed without leaving the building — a combination that makes this one of the most family-friendly major shows anywhere on the East Coast.
The Fieldhouse sits in the Princess Anne / Landstown area with quick access from Princess Anne Road and Dam Neck Road, and the lot is large enough that even peak Saturday crowds park painlessly. If you are traveling from the Peninsula or northeastern North Carolina, this is the weekend worth the drive.
Everyone belongs at this one. Families get a free outing where kids can hunt dollar boxes while parents dig vintage. Competitive TCG players restock singles at show pricing. Serious collectors and investors get the year's best local shot at high-end material, fresh collections, and autograph opportunities. Dealers and flippers treat it as the anchor date of the fall calendar.
Strategy matters at a show this size: come Saturday at opening for first pick of the best inventory, but do not sleep on Sunday — the shorter final day is when dealers discount rather than repack, and 9:00 AM Sunday is the sweet spot for deals. Do a full lap before big purchases, bring cash and a want list, wear comfortable shoes, and bring a box to protect your haul. If you want autographs, check the guest schedule in advance and arrive early for lines. Friday night's Trade Night, 6:00 to 9:00 PM at the same venue, makes a perfect scouting run.
