The Milpitas Card Show returns to the Milpitas Community Center for a one-day Saturday show on June 6, 2026, continuing a beloved tradition of East Bay-adjacent South Bay trading card gatherings. Sitting right where the South Bay meets the East Bay off I-880 and I-680, Milpitas is one of the most accessible card show locations in the Bay Area — equally convenient for collectors driving from San Jose, Fremont, Union City, Hayward, Santa Clara, and the Tri-Valley. The Milpitas Community Center's clean, well-lit community hall has become a favorite venue for a growing Bay Area monthly card show circuit.
The vendor floor brings a strong regional dealer base covering the full breadth of the hobby at accessible price points. Baseball card vendors stock MLB cards from Topps, Bowman, Stadium Club, Panini, and Upper Deck with deep San Francisco Giants sections featuring Mays, McCovey, Clark, Bonds, Posey, Bumgarner, Crawford, Chapman, and current Giants roster and prospect cards, plus Oakland A's inventory spanning Rickey Henderson, Eckersley, Canseco, McGwire, Chavez, and current A's hits. Basketball card tables feature classic Warriors Chamberlain, Thurmond, Rick Barry, Hardaway, Mullin alongside modern Curry, Thompson, Green, Wiggins, and current rookies. NFL football dealers stock 49ers Montana, Rice, Young, Lott vintage alongside modern Brock Purdy, Christian McCaffrey, George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and Nick Bosa, plus Raiders Stabler, Marcus Allen, Bo Jackson vintage. NHL dealers bring San Jose Sharks inventory from Selanne, Marleau, Thornton through current Celebrini and Smith rookies. Pokémon vendors offer raw singles across every generation, sealed booster packs, elite trainer boxes, Japanese exclusives, and graded slabs from PSA, BGS, and CGC. Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic: The Gathering, One Piece TCG, Disney Lorcana, and Dragon Ball Z Fusion World fill additional TCG tables. Signed memorabilia, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies round out the floor.
The Milpitas Card Show runs from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on Saturday, June 6. General admission is typically $3 for adults, and children under 12 enter free with a paying adult — one of the most accessible entry points of any Bay Area show. Early-bird VIP entry from 8:00 AM may be offered at a slightly higher price for collectors who want first access to fresh inventory. Concessions and water are typically available on-site.
The Milpitas Community Center is located at 457 E Calaveras Boulevard in Milpitas, with quick access from I-880, I-680, and Montague Expressway. Free on-site parking is available, the venue is clean and well-lit, and the single-hall format makes it easy to cover every table without missing anything. The Great Mall of the Bay Area is just minutes away, making the show a natural pairing with a shopping-and-dining afternoon.
This show is perfect for East Bay and South Bay collectors who prefer a friendly community show, families introducing kids to the hobby at a $3 admission entry point, dedicated Giants, A's, Warriors, 49ers, and Sharks fans hunting local hits, Pokémon and TCG collectors looking for a relaxed Saturday morning hunt, and dealers building relationships with Bay Area customers.
For the best experience, arrive at the 9:00 AM opening for widest selection, bring small bills for dollar boxes, carry a focused want list, and follow Bay Area Card Shows on Facebook for upcoming dates and vendor announcements.
