Hobby Hangout Tucson returns to the Kino Event Center on Saturday, October 3, 2026. This is the monthly show run by the team behind The 520 Card Show, and it exists to solve a specific problem: the 520's flagship events are big, ticketed, twice-a-year-scale productions, and collectors wanted something to do on the months in between.
Hours are 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM, a six-hour single-day Saturday window. The 11:00 AM open is later than most card shows, which is a genuine convenience — you are not setting an alarm to make the door.
Admission is FREE. Parking is FREE. There is no ticket, no VIP tier, and no early-entry fee.
The Kino Event Center is at 2805 East Ajo Way, inside the Kino Sports Complex south of downtown Tucson. There is abundant free surface parking, the hall is climate controlled, and access from I-10 and I-19 is straightforward.
The two are about fifteen minutes apart and run complementary hours — TCAT opens at 9:00 AM and closes at 3:00 PM, Hobby Hangout runs 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM — so a determined collector can do both in one day.
