The DFW Card & Collectibles Expo takes over the Frisco Flyers Event Center on Saturday, November 28 and Sunday, November 29, 2026 — Thanksgiving weekend — and it is the largest event the DFW Card Show organizers put on all year. This is a full pop culture convention rather than a card show with extras bolted on: 300-plus vendors, a cosplay competition with real cash prizes, and a voice actor lineup headlined by the English dub cast of Spy x Family.
The vendor floor is deliberately broad. Sports card dealers bring MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL singles and lots at every price tier, including dollar bins, team lots, vintage Topps, Bowman, Fleer, and Donruss, modern Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, Topps Chrome, and Bowman Chrome prospects, and graded PSA, SGC, BGS, and CGC slabs in the showcases. Thanksgiving weekend in a Cowboys market means football is the hottest category on the floor. Pokemon is the headline TCG, with raw singles, binders, Japanese imports, vintage, and sealed booster boxes and elite trainer boxes, and you will also find Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, and Dragon Ball. Beyond cards the advertised categories include comics, Funko Pops, vintage toys, video games, anime collectibles, and handcrafted goods, plus supply vendors selling sleeves, top loaders, one-touch magnetics, and storage boxes.
The guest lineup is the differentiator. Announced voice actors include Alex Organ (Loid Forger in Spy x Family, Eraser Head in My Hero Academia), Megan Shipman (Anya Forger, Sasha in Attack on Titan), Natalie Van Sistine (Yor Forger, Fox Devil in Chainsaw Man), and Jessie James Grelle (Armin in Attack on Titan, Tokoyami in My Hero Academia). Autographs and photo ops run all weekend. The cosplay showdown pays 1,000 dollars for first place, 500 for second, and 250 for third, and it is open to anime, comics, video game, and original builds.
Hours across both days are published on the DFW Card Show site as the date approaches. Two days is enough to split your time — one day for the vendor floor, one for autographs, panels, and cosplay — which is the smarter approach at a convention this size.
Admission pricing for DFW Card Show events typically runs five dollars general admission with a ten-dollar VIP tier that gets you in an hour before the public, and kids twelve and under free at select events. Autograph and photo op fees are separate and set by each guest. Confirm pricing on dfwcardshows.com before you drive up, since it varies by event.
The Frisco Flyers Event Center is at 6300 Flyers Way, Frisco, TX 75034, in far north Collin County. From Fort Worth allow roughly an hour depending on traffic. Free parking is available on site, and Frisco has extensive dining nearby.
This show is built for families, anime fans, casual collectors, and cosplayers as much as for serious card buyers. If you have kids who collect Pokemon and watch anime, this is the single best day of the DFW year for them.
Tips: buy VIP if you are hunting cards, arrive early for autograph lines, bring cash in mixed denominations, and carry a want list with maximum prices. Pack top loaders and a slab case. Budget separately for autographs — they add up fast.
