The Pavilion Collectible Show brings its popular East Bay card show format to 6430 Thornton Avenue in Newark — one of the most accessible and collector-friendly venues in the East Bay. With 60+ vendor tables in a no-frills, all-hobby environment, the Pavilion show is exactly the kind of community-run card show that forms the backbone of the Bay Area collecting scene.
Newark is centrally located in the East Bay, sitting at the intersection of the 880 and Dumbarton Bridge corridors. This makes it convenient for collectors from Fremont, Union City, Hayward, and communities across southern Alameda County, as well as those crossing from the Peninsula via the Dumbarton Bridge. Ample parking surrounds the Pavilion Event Center.
The Pavilion Collectible Show is a general sports cards and collectibles show with consistent vendor representation across baseball, basketball, football, and hockey. Pokémon and TCG dealers appear regularly, making it a well-rounded option for collectors across hobby categories. Admission is $5 (kids under 10 free), keeping the event accessible for families and new collectors.
Show hours are 10AM–4PM on Sunday. Contact organizer Nelson at 510-386-6383 for table availability and advance vendor registration. The Pavilion shows run several times throughout the year, providing East Bay collectors with a dependable local option that serves the community without the complexity or cost of the major convention-style events.
The Newark Pavilion show is exactly the kind of local card show that seasoned collectors treasure — a no-frills, well-run event where the inventory is the star and the community feeling is genuine. Whether you're a first-time show visitor or a veteran of the East Bay card scene, the Pavilion Collectible Show delivers a quality browsing experience at one of the region's most welcoming venues.
