The LA Card Dude Show closes out July with a Sunday edition at the Torrance Civic Center on July 26, 2026, running 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM as the second half of a back-to-back weekend in the series' biggest room. If Saturday is the volume day, Sunday is the value day — the show where end-of-weekend deals surface, vendors loosen up, and patient collectors from Long Beach and the South Bay routinely land the best prices of the month.
The floor covers everything the series is known for. Pokemon leads the trading card game section with singles from vintage WOTC through the newest sets, sealed product, and graded slabs, joined by Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Disney Lorcana, One Piece, and Dragon Ball Z. Sports tables run MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, and soccer across every era — vintage Topps, Bowman, and Fleer, nostalgic 1980s and 1990s wax, and modern Panini Prizm, Select, Mosaic, Donruss Optic, Topps Chrome, and Bowman Chrome prospects — with the local-team walls of Dodgers, Lakers, Angels, Kings, and Rams cardboard that define LA-area shows. Comics, Star Wars collectibles, anime figures, Funko Pops, and cases of PSA, BGS, and CGC graded cards complete the room. Admission for attendees is free.
Hours are Sunday, July 26 from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, no ticket required. The Torrance Civic Center at 3330 Civic Center Drive has free on-site public parking and easy access from Torrance Boulevard, Crenshaw Boulevard, and the 405 — a painless drive from Long Beach, Carson, Gardena, and the beach cities even on a summer Sunday.
Sunday crowds are the most relaxed of the series, which makes this edition the best entry point for newcomers and families. Kids can browse a free, family-friendly floor at their own pace under the organizer's one-strike conduct rules, first-timers get unhurried conversations with dealers about grading and pricing, and set builders get room to actually spread out a checklist. For dealers, flippers, and bargain hunters, the calculus is simple: vendors would rather sell at 3:00 PM than pack at 4:00 PM, and the final ninety minutes reliably produce the softest prices of the entire weekend.
Maximize the day the usual way: arrive at open for first look, do a full lap before buying, and keep a sorted want list with target prices in hand. Bring cash first — it still wins negotiations — with Venmo or Zelle everywhere as backup. Pack penny sleeves, top loaders, and a slab case, and bring the trade binder, because two-day Civic Center weekends build real collector-to-collector momentum by Sunday afternoon. If you attended Saturday, note which tables you want to revisit and open with those; vendors remember weekend regulars and deal accordingly.
