CCS Card Show I closes out August with a free two-day collector weekend at CCS Houston on Saturday, August 29 and Sunday, August 30, 2026. The debut edition of a new show series from the team behind Houston TCG Con, this event widens the lens beyond trading card games to put every major sport and every major TCG under one roof — with free entry and free parking keeping the whole weekend cost-free at the door.
The premise is deliberately comprehensive. On the sports side, expect vendor cases and binders covering MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer — modern rookies and parallels, autographed inserts, graded slabs, vintage singles, and sealed product. On the TCG side, the CCS community brings its strengths: Pokémon singles and slabs, Magic: The Gathering, One Piece, Lorcana, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Dragon Ball inventory from dealers who work these games year-round. Memorabilia hunters and mixed-collectible fans will find autographs, Funko Pops, and pop-culture pieces scattered through the room, making this a show where a sports collector and an anime TCG player can both fill a want list.
Hours are 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on both Saturday and Sunday. Admission is free both days, parking is free, and no VIP tier or early-entry fee has been published — a straightforward, everyone-welcome format that fits the venue's community-shop roots. Kids and families are welcome throughout the weekend.
CCS Houston is located at 9700 Bissonnet Street, Unit 1500, on the city's southwest side inside Beltway 8, an easy drive from Sugar Land, Bellaire, and central Houston. As a permanent card shop and event hall, the space comes with advantages rented ballrooms lack: proper display infrastructure, an experienced house staff, and free on-site parking right outside the door. The Bissonnet and Beltway corridors offer abundant quick-food options within minutes for lunch runs.
Who should come? Serious collectors get first-edition access to a new show — debut events often feature motivated vendors offering sharper prices to build a returning crowd. Casual collectors and families get a free, low-pressure weekend with genuine variety across sports and games. Traders will find the CCS regular community among the most active deal-makers in Houston, and first-timers could hardly pick a friendlier setting to learn the hobby's ropes.
To get the most from the weekend: hit Saturday's 10:00 AM open for the best selection, and remember that with two full days, a Sunday return trip lets you close deals after checking comps overnight. Bring cash for leverage, a sleeved and organized trade binder, and a want list split by category so the sports and TCG aisles do not pull your budget in every direction at once. Deal-hunting is typically best in Sunday's final hours as vendors look to move inventory rather than pack it.
