The LA Card Expo returns to the Warner Center Marriott in Woodland Hills on Saturday, September 26 and Sunday, September 27, 2026 for its early-fall two-day edition. The Warner Center room is the home base of the LA Card Expo / Tenth Inning / TCG NOW family of shows and has become the go-to weekend destination for San Fernando Valley collectors who do not want to drive Downtown or out to the South Bay. The September edition lands right as NFL season hits stride and the fall set release calendar accelerates, so the room is typically denser with current-product breakers and rookie chasers than the summer editions.
Vendor coverage runs deep across sports cards — MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer across vintage and modern, with rows of Topps Chrome, Bowman Chrome rookies and prospects, Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, vintage Topps, Bowman, and Fleer, and 1980s and 1990s wax. TCG coverage runs equally deep, with strong Pokemon presence across the Scarlet & Violet era singles, sealed boxes, ETBs, Japanese imports, and vintage WOTC chase cards, plus Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Disney Lorcana, and Dragon Ball Z tables. Graded PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC slabs fill locked cases at the high-end tables. Memorabilia, autographs, sealed wax, comics, Funko Pops, and supplies like sleeves, top loaders, and binders round out the room.
Show hours run 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM on Saturday and 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM on Sunday — the same early 9:30 AM open that gives serious shoppers first crack at fresh inventory. Admission policy and ticket pricing for the September edition is posted on tenthinningcardshow.com closer to show week, and VIP early-access typically opens 30–60 minutes ahead of general admission. Kids are typically free with an accompanying adult.
The Warner Center Marriott sits at 21850 Oxnard Street in Woodland Hills, just off the 101 freeway in the heart of the Warner Center business district, with hotel parking on site, plenty of nearby restaurants in the Westfield Topanga / Village center, and quick freeway access from the broader San Fernando Valley, Calabasas, Encino, Sherman Oaks, and Burbank. A discounted hotel room block is typically offered for out-of-town attendees who want to stay on property.
Who should attend? LA Card Expo is built for the full hobby — families with kids, first-timers, set builders, vintage diggers, modern flippers, slab hunters, prospect chasers, Pokemon and TCG fans, and full-time dealers. The two-day format gives Saturday for the first pass and Sunday for the make-up dig on anything you flagged but did not pull the trigger on the day before, and the fall timing means football and basketball product is freshest right as collectors are most engaged.
To get the most out of the weekend, plan to arrive close to the 9:30 AM open on Saturday for first crack at fresh inventory, walk the full room once before committing to big buys, and carry a sorted want list with target prices. Bring cash for the quickest and friendliest transactions (Venmo and Zelle as backups), pack a slab case and extra top loaders for pickups, and bring a trade binder if you like to deal.
