The San Francisco Card Show returns on Saturday, November 14, 2026, moving to the South San Francisco Conference Center for a one-day edition that the organizers call the Bay Area's biggest card show. Produced by the team behind Classic Materials, the show is built around the culture of collecting: sports cards, trading card games, comics, memorabilia, and the people who love them. After headline summer dates in the city, this fall edition gives Peninsula and San Francisco collectors a big-room show without the downtown hotel logistics.
Organizers promise more than 200 vendor tables with dealers from across the country. Sports collectors can expect deep MLB, NBA, NFL, and NHL inventory, including Giants, Warriors, and 49ers cards, vintage Topps and Bowman, modern Prizm, Optic, and Topps Chrome rookies, and cases of PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC slabs. On the TCG side, look for Pokémon singles and sealed product, One Piece, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Disney Lorcana. Comics, autographed memorabilia, and sealed wax round out the floor. The show also advertises on-site grading, athlete and creator guest appearances announced closer to the date, brand activations, live breaks, giveaways, exclusive show cards and merchandise, and community events such as trade sessions, raffles, and case breaks. Past partners include Beckett, CLOVR, and GradedGuard, and the promoter's YouTube and TikTok channels under Classic Materials regularly preview what dealers plan to bring.
Hours are Saturday, November 14, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with early bird entry starting at 10:00 AM. Posted pricing is $15 for general admission and $20 for early bird, and kids 12 and under get in free. Online ticket sales were marked as coming soon at the time of writing, so watch the show's website and Instagram for the ticket drop.
The South San Francisco Conference Center at 255 South Airport Boulevard is minutes from San Francisco International Airport and right off US-101. The organizers advertise free parking but suggest arriving early before spaces fill up. SFO-area hotels are close by for out-of-town dealers and collectors, and the South San Francisco Caltrain station and SamTrans routes provide transit options from the city and the Peninsula.
This show is a strong fit for serious sports collectors, graded card buyers, TCG players hunting singles, dealers looking to buy inventory, and families, since kids get in free. First-timers will find the one-day format easy to plan around.
Tips: the early bird hour is worth the extra five dollars if you are chasing specific cards or want first look at dealer cases. Bring cash for negotiating along with a card for larger buys, plus a want list organized by player or set. Pack penny sleeves and top loaders, and bring anything you want graded if on-site submissions are offered.
