The Lebanon, IN Card Show fills the Boone County Fairgrounds on Sunday, November 15, 2026, with around 100 tables of sports cards, Pokemon, trading card games, memorabilia and comics. Lebanon sits on the northwest edge of the Indianapolis metro between Zionsville and Lafayette, and this free Sunday show has become a convenient option for collectors in Boone and Hendricks counties who would rather skip the drive into the city.
The show is intentionally broad. Sports vendors bring baseball, football and basketball singles from vintage through modern, including Colts, Pacers and Indiana college favorites, plus graded slabs from PSA, BGS and SGC. On the TCG side, you can expect Pokemon singles and sealed product along with Magic: The Gathering, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh! and Lorcana. Organizers also mention memorabilia, comics and other collectibles, so it is common to find autographed items, vintage toys and long boxes of comics mixed in with cardboard. Vendors come from across Indiana and the Midwest, which keeps the inventory varied from show to show.
Hours are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM Eastern. General admission is free, and the atmosphere is family friendly, so kids are welcome all day.
The Boone County Fairgrounds is located at 1300 East 100 South, Lebanon, IN 46052, just south of I-65 on the east side of Lebanon. From Zionsville it is about fifteen minutes, from Carmel or Brownsburg about twenty-five, and from downtown Indianapolis around thirty-five. The fairgrounds has plenty of free parking right outside the exhibit building, and the single-level layout makes it easy to bring in carts or cases.
This show works well for a wide audience. Families can browse without paying admission, casual collectors can find inexpensive singles and supplies, and serious collectors can hunt for grails or complete sets. It is also a practical show for sellers and traders, since vendors are often buying. Mid-November timing makes it a good date to start holiday shopping, especially for sealed Pokemon product and graded sports cards.
To make the most of the day, arrive near 10:00 AM for first pick of fresh inventory. Bring cash in a variety of denominations, a clear want list, and protective sleeves and top loaders. Take a lap before buying, check recent sold prices for big purchases, and ask for bundle pricing when buying several cards from one table. If you are bringing cards to sell, sort them by value so dealers can make quick offers.
Lebanon itself is worth a few extra minutes. The historic courthouse square downtown has local diners and coffee shops, and the Boone County Fairgrounds is an easy place to meet a trading partner from Lafayette, Zionsville or Brownsburg halfway. Many regulars treat the show as a monthly meetup as much as a shopping trip.
The show is organized by Trade River Cards; follow them on Facebook for updates, vendor information and future dates, including the next Lebanon show scheduled for January 17, 2027. The event is listed on the Trading Card Database and Treasure Hunter calendars.
