Charlie's Collectible Show lands in Downtown Los Angeles on Saturday, August 1, 2026 at 1201 South Figueroa Street, running alongside the massive Collect-A-Con weekend at the Los Angeles Convention Center. Charlie's has built a national reputation as one of the most energetic anime, TCG, and collectibles shows in the country, and the Los Angeles stop brings that same fast-moving, deal-heavy floor to the biggest collector city on the West Coast. If you are downtown for the weekend anyway, this is a can't-miss add-on; if you are choosing one Saturday to dive into the LA hobby scene this summer, this is a strong pick.
The vendor floor leans hard into trading card games: Pokemon singles, slabs, and sealed product across the Scarlet & Violet era, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, and Dragon Ball Z, plus a deep bench of anime collectibles, figures, plush, and art. Sports cards get real table space too — MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer, from modern Prizm, Optic, Select, and Topps Chrome to vintage wax and graded PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC slabs in locked cases. Rounding out the room are Funko Pops, comics, memorabilia, and supplies like sleeves, top loaders, binders, and storage boxes.
Show hours run 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM on Saturday, August 1 — a single-day, full-throttle session. Listed admission runs around $30, with tiers and any early-entry options sold through the organizer's site; buy ahead online, as Charlie's stops in major cities regularly sell through their early-bird allotments. Children's policies vary by stop, so check the ticket page before bringing the family.
The venue sits at 1201 South Figueroa Street in the heart of Downtown LA's sports and entertainment district, steps from Crypto.com Arena and LA Live. Parking is available in the convention center structures and surrounding LA Live garages — expect event-day rates and arrive early for the closest spots, or take the Metro E or A Line to Pico Station, which drops you a block away.
Who should attend? TCG players and collectors will find the deepest selection, but the crossover with Collect-A-Con weekend means sports card collectors, anime fans, Funko hunters, and comic readers all have plenty to dig through. First-timers do well here because the crowd is social and vendors expect negotiation; serious buyers will want to be on the floor at open.
To get the most out of the day, arrive right at 10:00 AM for first crack at fresh inventory — the best slabs and sealed deals move in the first hour. Bring cash for the fastest deals, with Venmo and Zelle as backups, and carry a sorted want list with target prices. Pack a slab case and extra top loaders for pickups, and bring a trade binder — Charlie's floors are famously trade-friendly.
