The Regional SoCal Cards & Collectibles Show returns to the Delta Hotels by Marriott Anaheim Garden Grove for its November weekend on Saturday, November 14 and Sunday, November 15, 2026. Falling two weeks after the Halloween shows and two weeks before the OC Card Show Fall Edition and Black Friday, it is the weekend Orange County collectors use to start holiday shopping for cards, and like every Regional show it is free to attend with free parking.
The ballroom is a mixed sports and trading card game show. Sports tables carry MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL rookies, parallels, vintage and graded cards, with the NFL and NBA seasons in full swing and early hobby releases landing on the tables. TCG vendors bring Pokemon across every era, including Japanese product, sealed boxes and graded slabs, along with One Piece, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Disney Lorcana and Dragon Ball Super. Non-sport, memorabilia and toy sellers round it out, and holiday gift bundles start to appear at this show.
Hours are 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on both days. Admission is free and parking at the hotel is free for attendees. Vendor setup opens at 8:30 AM and tables are reserved through linktr.ee/theregional_socalcardshow.
The venue is the Delta Hotels by Marriott Anaheim Garden Grove at 12021 Harbor Blvd, Garden Grove, CA 92840, on Harbor Boulevard south of Chapman Avenue, across from the Hyatt Regency Orange County and a mile from Disneyland. From Santa Ana it is a ten to fifteen minute drive up Harbor or via the 22 Freeway. Harbor Boulevard's restaurant strip covers lunch, and the hotel has its own cafe.
Who it suits: gift shoppers looking for sealed Pokemon or sports boxes; families, since there is no ticket cost; casual collectors who want a manageable single-ballroom show; and dealers who want an inexpensive weekend before the December rush. First-time attendees will find the room easy to cover in an hour or two.
Tips: Saturday morning is for selection, Sunday afternoon is for deals. Bring cash for the best prices, a want list, and a trade binder; both sports and TCG vendors here trade. Sleeves and toploaders protect raw purchases. If you are shopping for holiday gifts, ask vendors about sealed product pricing early; the good boxes go fast. Check the promoter's Instagram for that weekend's vendor list, giveaways and any room or hours changes before you drive over. Because the Hyatt across the street and the Anaheim resort district draw heavy weekend traffic in November, use the Chapman Avenue exit from the 22 rather than Harbor from the 5 if you are coming from the east, and give yourself a few extra minutes on Saturday morning. Collectors who want a quieter experience should target the Sunday 10 AM opening, when the room is full of inventory but the Saturday rush is over.
