The Noblesville Card Show runs at Moose Lodge #540 on Saturday, October 3, 2026, and it lands on a genuinely busy Hamilton County weekend — Midwest Monster is running the same day a few miles south in Fishers. That overlap is worth knowing about, and it cuts in the collector's favor: the Noblesville room stays quiet through the morning while the convention crowd is elsewhere, which means less competition on the boxes and more time with dealers who are not fielding twelve questions at once.
The floor stays true to its format. Baseball is the deepest category, with Topps and Bowman runs from the 1950s onward, Fleer and Donruss, complete and partial sets, star singles and organized commons boxes that reward set builders. Football is at its seasonal peak in early October — Colts inventory, the current rookie class, vintage NFL from the 1960s through 1980s, and Notre Dame and Big Ten college product. Basketball centers on Pacers history and IU, Purdue and Butler alumni. Hockey, soccer, UFC, boxing, racing and Indy 500 material fill out the sports side. Modern releases cover Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, Topps Chrome and Bowman Draft. Locked cases hold PSA, BGS, SGC and CGC slabs across a range of price points. Several tables carry Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh! and One Piece singles, and the dollar and quarter boxes here are restocked monthly rather than recycled.
Hours are 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM Eastern. Admission is free, parking in the lodge lot is free, and kids attend free. The lodge usually has drinks and light food available during show hours.
Moose Lodge #540 is at 950 Field Drive, Noblesville, IN 46060, just off State Road 37 with straightforward access from Fishers, Westfield, Carmel, Anderson and the north side of Indianapolis. The building is single-level with wide doors and a large flat lot, which makes loading in and out simple whether you are a dealer or an attendee with a rolling case. Downtown Noblesville and the courthouse square sit five minutes away with a solid restaurant cluster for lunch.
Set builders, vintage hunters and families get the most from this show. The stable monthly dealer roster means relationships pay off quickly — tell someone what you are chasing and it frequently turns up the following month. If you are trying to knock out a specific 1970s run or complete a team set, the pace here lets you actually do it rather than getting swept along in a convention crowd.
A practical suggestion for October 3 specifically: consider hitting Noblesville at 9:00 AM for first pick, then driving down to Midwest Monster in Fishers for the afternoon. The two venues are about twenty minutes apart and the shows serve completely different purposes — one for patient digging, one for scale. Bring cash in twenties and smaller for both, plus a want list, penny sleeves, top loaders and a carrying box. Do a full lap before spending, and bundle purchases from a single dealer into one negotiated price. Contact Brad at 463-673-6073 for tables.
