Collect-A-Con makes its return to downtown Houston for two enormous days at the George R. Brown Convention Center on Saturday and Sunday, June 13 and 14, 2026, bringing the nation's largest traveling trading card and pop culture convention back to one of its most passionate markets. Houston has hosted multiple sold-out Collect-A-Con stops in recent years, and the combination of hundreds of vendor tables, celebrity guests, exclusive product drops, live on-stage panels, and a headline concert makes this a weekend that Gulf Coast collectors circle months in advance.
Collect-A-Con Houston runs Saturday, June 13 from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Sunday, June 14 from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM. General admission is $40 on Saturday and $35 on Sunday, $55 for a two-day pass, $125 for a VIP Fast Pass with early entry both days, and premium Meet and Greet packages with celebrity guests are offered at higher tiers. Tickets are available in advance through the Collect-A-Con website and at the door subject to availability.
The venue offers vast climate-controlled exhibition halls, multiple on-site and adjacent parking garages, and direct walking access to Marriott Marquis, Hilton Americas, and dozens of downtown restaurants.
