The LA Card Dude Show runs a Sunday daytime session on September 20, 2026, from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM in the Toyota Meeting Hall at the Torrance Civic Center. Late September puts this date squarely in the closing stretch of the baseball regular season, and that shows up on the floor. Playoff races drive interest in prospect cards and rookie inventory, and the Dodgers and Angels material that always circulates in this room gets a bump in both supply and attention.
Baseball is the seasonal story but not the only one. Football tables are busy three weeks into the NFL season, basketball dealers are stocking ahead of the October tip-off, and hockey, boxing and UFC material fill out the sports side. Graded slabs span PSA, CGC, SGC and Beckett. Pokemon leads the trading card game vendors with sealed product, singles binders and vintage holos, and Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece and Lorcana all have tables. Dollar boxes, quarter bins and raw vintage lots are consistently available for people who would rather dig than buy graded.
Hours are a single 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM session with no early-bird tier. The promoter posts the date, room and hours but not the door price, so check LA Card Dude's Instagram or the show page for admission before you go.
The Toyota Meeting Hall sits at 3330 Civic Center Drive North, Torrance 90503, on the Torrance Cultural Arts Center campus. Sunday parking in the civic center lots is free and easy. The hall is indoors, climate controlled and fully accessible, with restrooms in the complex and open grounds outside if you need air. Old Torrance is a short walk for lunch, and Del Amo Fashion Center is a few minutes north.
Sunday daytime is the most broadly appealing of the three formats this promoter runs. Families come, casual collectors come, and the serious South Bay buyers come too. It is also the best day of the week to sell — dealers who worked a Saturday show elsewhere arrive Sunday looking to replace what they moved, which means real buying interest rather than lowball offers.
How to work it: arrive at ten if selection matters, because Sunday draws the largest crowd of the three formats and the sharp raw material goes early. If price is what matters, the last hour is where dealers get flexible. Bring cash. Bring a want list, ideally with your target price written next to each card so you are not negotiating against yourself. If you are selling, organize what you brought before you walk in — a dealer will make a better offer on a sorted box than on a shoebox. Bring penny sleeves and toploaders, and check corners and centering under good light before committing on raw.
