The Pikes Peak Card Show returns to the Norris Penrose Event Center on Saturday, May 23, 2026 for the May edition of Southern Colorado's longest-running sports card and collectibles show. Hosted at 945 Lower Gold Camp Road on the southwest side of Colorado Springs near the foot of Cheyenne Mountain, this 200-table Saturday-only marketplace fills the main Norris Penrose indoor venue with one of the deepest dealer floors in the Rocky Mountain region. Memorial Day weekend timing slots the show squarely in early summer collecting season — 2026 Topps Series 1 and Series 2 Baseball are out, Topps Heritage and Bowman Draft are loading dealer cases, the Colorado Rockies are deep into their home schedule at Coors Field, and the NBA Finals are tipping off with Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets storyline keeping basketball cases buzzing across the Front Range.
The vendor floor covers every corner of the trading card hobby. Sports tables stock deep MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, MMA, soccer, and college football inventory across every era — vintage Topps, Bowman, Fleer, Goudey, Play Ball, and pre-war tobacco issues from the early 1900s through the 1980s, junk-wax 1990s monster boxes, and modern Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, Topps Chrome, Bowman Draft, and premium Topps Dynasty, National Treasures, Flawless, and Immaculate. Colorado Rockies, Denver Nuggets, Denver Broncos, Colorado Avalanche, Colorado College Tigers hockey, Air Force Falcons football, and Colorado Buffaloes inventory anchors the local-team cases and is a Rocky Mountain signature you won't find at coastal shows. TCG tables stock Pokemon singles and sealed product from vintage WOTC Base through modern Scarlet & Violet, plus Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece TCG, Disney Lorcana, Dragon Ball Z Fusion World, Star Wars Unlimited, Flesh and Blood, and Riftbound. Locked cases display PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC graded slabs alongside autographed memorabilia, vintage comics, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies.
Doors open at 9:00 AM Mountain and run straight through to 4:00 PM Mountain — seven full hours of trading time that lets you work the room top-to-bottom, take a midday lunch break, and circle back for the final negotiation push. General admission is completely free for all ages and there is no formal VIP early-entry, so the door open is the door open for everyone. Kids are warmly welcomed and dealers consistently hand out free packs and base singles to engaged younger collectors, making this one of the most approachable shows in Colorado for first-time families.
The Norris Penrose Event Center sits at 945 Lower Gold Camp Road, Colorado Springs, CO 80905, on the southwest side of town a few minutes off US-24 and Highway 115. The hall is climate-controlled, ADA-accessible, and laid out with wide aisles. Free parking blankets the on-site lot. The surrounding area has plenty of food options — King's Chef Diner, Margarita at PineCreek, Old Chicago, and the Cañon Avenue and Manitou Springs restaurant strips are all short drives away. Pikes Peak itself looms directly west of the venue, making this one of the most scenic card-show drives in the country.
This show fits every collector profile — first-timers, families, casual fans, modern flippers, prospect hunters, vintage diggers, and TCG players. For the best experience, arrive at 9:00 AM sharp for first dibs on freshly-stocked tables, bring cash plus Venmo and Zelle backups, and carry a sorted want list. Pack penny sleeves, top loaders, and a slab case.
