The Georgia Collectibles Show returns to the DoubleTree Hotel Atlanta-Chamblee on Sunday, August 23, 2026 for the late-summer edition of veteran promoter Jim Daley's recurring metro Atlanta sports card and collectibles show. Hosted at 4386 Chamblee Dunwoody Road just inside the Perimeter on the north side of town, this Sunday-only stop fills the DoubleTree ballroom with roughly 80 dealer tables and consistently pulls collectors driving in from Chamblee, Dunwoody, Brookhaven, Sandy Springs, Roswell, Alpharetta, Marietta, Smyrna, Decatur, Tucker, Norcross, Buckhead, and Midtown Atlanta. Late-August timing puts the show right at the front of football season — 2026 Panini National Treasures Football, Donruss, Score, and early Prizm previews are stacking up, the NFL preseason is in full swing, college football kickoff is days away, and Atlanta Braves are pushing through the dog days of the divisional race.
The vendor floor packs roughly 80 dealer tables across every corner of the trading card hobby. Sports tables stock deep MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, MMA, soccer, and college football inventory across every era — vintage Topps, Bowman, Fleer, Goudey, Play Ball, and pre-war tobacco runs from the early 1900s through the 1980s, junk-wax 1990s monster boxes, and modern Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, Topps Chrome, Bowman Draft, and premium Topps Dynasty, National Treasures, Flawless, and Immaculate. Atlanta Braves, Atlanta Falcons, Atlanta Hawks, Atlanta United, Atlanta Dream, Georgia Bulldogs, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, Auburn Tigers, Alabama Crimson Tide, Tennessee Volunteers, and Florida Gators inventory moves heavily and is a Southeast signature dealers stock thick for the August football lead-in. TCG tables stock Pokémon singles and sealed from vintage WOTC Base through modern Scarlet & Violet, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece TCG, Disney Lorcana, Dragon Ball Z Fusion World, Star Wars Unlimited, and Flesh and Blood. Locked cases display PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC graded slabs alongside autographed memorabilia, vintage comics, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies.
Doors open at 9:00 AM EDT and run straight through to 3:00 PM EDT — six full hours of trading time that lets you work the room top-to-bottom, hit a nearby lunch midday, and still circle back for the final negotiation push. General admission is completely free for all ages and there is no formal VIP early-entry, so the door open is the door open for everyone. Kids are warmly welcomed, dealers consistently hand out free packs and singles to engaged younger collectors, and the show is consistently a strong family pick because of the low cost, the variety of toy-and-comic dealers, and the lean show floor that does not overwhelm first-time attendees.
The DoubleTree Hotel Atlanta-Chamblee sits at 4386 Chamblee Dunwoody Road, Chamblee, GA 30341, two blocks east of Peachtree Industrial Boulevard and a five-minute drive from I-285 (Exit 31) and I-85. The ballroom is climate-controlled, ADA-accessible, and laid out with wide aisles. Free parking is plentiful in the on-site lot, and the surrounding Chamblee corridor has plenty of food including Chinese, Vietnamese, Mexican, and Southern diners along Buford Highway just minutes away.
This show fits every collector type — first-timers, families, casual fans, modern flippers, prospect hunters, vintage hunters, and Pokémon and TCG players. For the best experience, arrive at 9:00 AM sharp for first dibs on freshly-stocked dealer tables, bring cash plus Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal backups, and carry a sorted want list. Pack penny sleeves, top loaders, and a hard-sided slab case. Save the last forty-five minutes for dealer negotiation.
