The Northeast Kansas Card Show takes its Thanksgiving weekend date on Saturday, November 28, 2026 at the Douglas County 4-H Fairgrounds in Lawrence, giving eastern Kansas collectors somewhere to go on the busiest shopping Saturday of the year that is not a shopping center. Small Business Saturday and a card show pair naturally: every dealer in the room is a small business, and money spent on a 1968 Topps star card does considerably more good here than it would at a big-box register.
Doors open at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 28 and the show runs through the afternoon.
Admission is a small door fee paid on arrival, with no advance ticketing, no VIP tier and no early entry.
Parking at the Douglas County 4-H Fairgrounds is free and abundant, with ground-level entry and no stairs between the lot and the tables. From the Kansas City metro the drive is forty to fifty minutes on K-10 or I-70, with no city driving at the far end.
