The LA Card Dude Show returns to the DoubleTree by Hilton Torrance on Sunday, July 19, 2026 for the recurring summer Sunday edition of Torrance's number-one card show. The DoubleTree on Hawthorne Boulevard is a long-time fixture of the South Bay card-show circuit, and the LA Card Dude Sunday format — 75 vendor tables, free admission, an air-conditioned hotel ballroom, and a relaxed Sunday-morning vibe — has built a steady summertime following among South Bay sports and TCG collectors. July's edition typically pulls heavy foot traffic given how few competing Sunday shows run in the South Bay during peak summer.
Vendor coverage is the full LA Card Dude mix. Sports tables cover MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer, vintage and modern alike, with rows of Topps Chrome, Bowman Chrome rookies and prospects, Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, and vintage Topps, Bowman, and Fleer. Trading card games are well represented — Pokemon singles and sealed product across the Scarlet & Violet era, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, and Dragon Ball Z all get table space. Graded PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC slabs fill locked cases at the higher-end tables. Memorabilia, autographs, sealed wax, comics, Funko Pops, and supplies like sleeves, top loaders, and binders round out the room.
Show hours typically run 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on Sunday, July 19. Admission is FREE — a signature LA Card Dude policy — and the DoubleTree provides on-site parking and easy hotel amenities for attendees who want to make a half-day of it. Kids are welcome with a parent or guardian, and the room is consistently family-friendly. The Sunday format draws strong walk-in foot traffic from across the South Bay, so vendors price aggressively to move inventory before the day wraps.
The DoubleTree by Hilton Torrance sits at 21333 Hawthorne Boulevard, between the 405 and Pacific Coast Highway, pulling collectors from Torrance, Redondo Beach, Hermosa, Manhattan Beach, Gardena, Carson, San Pedro, Long Beach, and the rest of the South Bay. The hotel has its own on-site restaurant, plenty of South Bay dining within a short drive, and an air-conditioned ballroom that holds up to a busy summer Sunday crowd.
Who should attend? This show is built for the full range of South Bay collectors — first-timers, families with kids opening their first packs, set builders chasing specific cards, vintage diggers, modern flippers, slab hunters, prospect collectors, and Pokemon and TCG fans. The combination of free entry, 75 tables, a central South Bay location, and a Sunday morning vibe makes it especially good for someone attending their first card show, or for serious collectors looking for a quick Sunday flip session on a summer weekend.
To get the most out of the day, arrive close to the 10:00 AM open for first crack at fresh inventory, walk the full room once before pulling the trigger on a big buy, and carry a sorted want list with target prices. Bring cash for the quickest and friendliest transactions, with Venmo and Zelle as backups. Pack a slab case and a few extra top loaders for pickups, and bring a trade binder if you like to deal. Schedules can shift in the LA Card Dude Sunday rotation, so confirm week-of details on lacarddudeshow.com and on Instagram (@lacarddude) and X (@LAcarddude) before you go.
