The Cards & More Tour rolls into the Kansas City metro on Saturday, August 1 and Sunday, August 2, 2026 for a two-day trading-card and collectibles convention at the Embassy Suites Kansas City-Overland Park. Part of the nation's largest network of collector conventions, this weekend stop turns the hotel's ballroom into a full hobby destination and consistently pulls Kansas City-metro collectors driving in from Overland Park, Lenexa, Olathe, Shawnee, Leawood, Prairie Village, Kansas City KS, downtown Kansas City MO, Independence, Lee's Summit, and Liberty. Early-August timing lands the show squarely in prime hobby season — 2026 Topps Chrome and Bowman Draft baseball are stacking up, NFL and college football prospecting is ramping toward kickoff, and the Kansas City Royals pennant race is in full swing.
The vendor floor packs together 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 National Treasures, Flawless, and Immaculate. Kansas City Chiefs, Kansas City Royals, Sporting Kansas City, Kansas City Current, Kansas Jayhawks, Kansas State Wildcats, and Missouri Tigers inventory moves consistently and is a Kansas City signature dealers stock heavy for this show. 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 Saturday, August 1 from 10:00 AM CDT to 6:00 PM CDT and Sunday, August 2 from 10:00 AM CDT to 4:00 PM CDT, with the deepest dealer-cut deals landing Sunday afternoon. Tickets are sold through the Cards & More Tour site with single-day, weekend, and VIP early-entry tiers — buy in advance to lock the lowest price and skip the door-day line. Kids 12 and under are admitted free with a paying adult, and on-site giveaways and door-prize raffles run throughout each day.
The Embassy Suites Kansas City-Overland Park sits at 10401 Metcalf Avenue, Overland Park, KS 66212, minutes off Interstate 435 with quick access from I-35 and US-69. The space is climate-controlled, ADA-accessible, and laid out with wide aisles, and the hotel atrium restaurant makes for an easy mid-show lunch break. Free parking is plentiful in the on-site lot, and the surrounding Metcalf corridor is packed with dining.
This show fits every collector type — first-timers, families, casual fans, modern flippers, breakers, prospect hunters, vintage buyers, and TCG players. For the best experience, buy the VIP early-entry pass online, arrive at the Saturday open sharp, 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. Follow @cardsandmoretour on Instagram and Facebook for vendor previews and ticket links.
