The North Atlanta Collectibles Show sets up at the Fairfield by Marriott Inn and Suites at Gwinnett Place in Duluth on Sunday, August 30, 2026, closing out the month with a relaxed, free-admission Sunday show in the heart of Gwinnett County. For collectors who spent Saturday at the bigger events around the metro, this is the perfect second stop: a manageable thirty-five-table room where you can actually talk to every dealer and still be home for lunch.
Do not let the size fool you, because the mix here is broad. Sports cards form the backbone, with baseball, football, and basketball ranging from vintage commons and stars through modern rookies, parallels, and graded slabs from PSA, SGC, and CGC. Regular dealers bring binders of affordable singles that make this a set-builder's show, alongside display cases with genuine high-end pieces. The collectibles half of the name is earned too: expect Pokemon and other TCG singles and sealed product, memorabilia, autographed items, comics, coins, and vintage toys scattered through the room, which keeps non-card family members happily browsing.
Hours run 9 AM to 3 PM, and admission is completely free, making this one of the lowest-friction card events on the metro calendar. Parking at the hotel is also free and steps from the show floor.
The Fairfield Inn sits in the Gwinnett Place area of Duluth, just off Pleasant Hill Road with immediate access to I-85, which puts the show within twenty minutes of Lawrenceville, Suwanee, Norcross, Johns Creek, and Buford. The hotel-ballroom format means air conditioning, clean restrooms, and a comfortable, low-key atmosphere from open to close.
This show is tailor-made for a few audiences. Families with kids find free entry, a calm room, and dealers happy to help a young collector spend ten dollars well. Set builders and vintage hunters do well here because smaller Sunday shows are where patient digging pays off, and dealers price to sell rather than to anchor. Anyone with a collection to move should bring it, since buying dealers are a constant at this series and Sunday mornings are a good time to get an unhurried offer.
For the best experience, come early, as the first hour is when other dealers shop each other and the best-priced cards trade hands. Bring cash, especially smaller bills, which make negotiating bulk deals painless. Keep a want list on your phone, and ask dealers about inventory they did not have room to display. Give the quarter and dollar boxes real time, because at a show this size they are often the sneaky highlight. And since the show wraps at 3 PM, do not plan on a late arrival; afternoon selection thins quickly.
The North Atlanta Collectibles Show runs recurring dates at the same Duluth location, so a missed month is easy to make up. Check the show's listing on the regional card show directories for upcoming dates, vendor details, and any schedule changes before you go.
