The Las Vegas Card Show returns to the Ahern Luxury Boutique Hotel on Saturday and Sunday, August 29–30, 2026 for the second of three premier 2026 weekends at one of the most collector-friendly venues in the country. Labor Day weekend timing makes this one of the highest-traffic stops on the Vegas hobby calendar — out-of-state collectors plan three- and four-day Vegas trips around it, dealers fly in early, and the show floor typically opens hot and stays busy. The Ahern is just steps from the Strip and packs 200 vendor tables of cards, comics, memorabilia, and TCGs into a single well-lit ballroom designed for serious buying and selling.
The vendor floor is balanced across every corner of the hobby. Sports dealers 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 Topps Dynasty, National Treasures, Flawless, and Immaculate. Late-August timing aligns with NFL Week 1 anticipation and the back end of MLB hobby release season — 2026 Topps Chrome Baseball, current-year Bowman Chrome rookie cards, and Panini NFL prospect product move all weekend. Las Vegas Raiders, Vegas Golden Knights, Las Vegas Aces, Aviators, and incoming Athletics inventory is consistently deep, Los Angeles Dodgers and Lakers product moves quickly, and the UFC, Canelo Álvarez, Floyd Mayweather, and combat-sports memorabilia presence is unmatched anywhere else in North America. TCG tables stock Pokémon singles and sealed from vintage WOTC through modern Scarlet & Violet and Japanese exclusives, Magic: The Gathering Commander and Standard, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece TCG, Disney Lorcana, Dragon Ball Z Fusion World, Digimon, Star Wars Unlimited, and Flesh and Blood. Locked cases display PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC graded slabs from low-end commons to grail-level vintage and modern, alongside autographed memorabilia, vintage comics, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies.
Saturday hours typically run 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM PDT and Sunday hours run 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM PDT, with VIP early-entry available for advance ticket holders starting one hour before the public open each day. General admission and weekend passes are sold online at lasvegascardshow.com and at the door, kids 12 and under enter free with a paying adult, and door prizes, pack giveaways, athlete or content-creator meet-and-greets, and on-site grading drop-off with select graders are typically announced via @lasvegascardshow on Instagram and Facebook in the weeks before the show.
The Ahern Luxury Boutique Hotel is located at 300 West Sahara Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89102, less than one mile from the Strip and walking distance from SAHARA, Stratosphere, and the Las Vegas Convention Center. The venue is climate-controlled, offers free on-site parking, on-site food and bar service, and discounted hobby-rate hotel rooms with promo codes published on the show's site.
This show fits every collector type — serious vintage buyers, modern flippers, breakers, families, casual fans, and out-of-state travelers planning a Labor Day Vegas weekend. For the best experience, buy weekend VIP early-entry online ahead of time, book your hotel block early, arrive at door open Saturday for first dibs, bring cash plus Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal, and carry a detailed want list. Save the last hour Sunday for negotiation.
