The Shoff Promotions Sports Card, Pokemon & Comics Show returns to the Annandale Fire House Expo Hall on Sunday, June 28, 2026, bringing one of Northern Virginia's most dependable grassroots shows back to the heart of Fairfax County. Promoter Nick Schoff has built a loyal local following for these no-frills, collector-friendly gatherings, and the mix of sports cards, Pokemon, and comics under one roof makes this a true something-for-everyone Sunday just minutes from Washington, DC.
The vendor floor covers the full breadth of the hobby. Sports card dealers bring inventory across MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer — vintage Topps, Bowman, and Fleer, 1980s and 1990s wax, and modern Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, and Topps Chrome, plus prospect-rich Bowman Chrome for the rookie hunters. Washington Nationals, Commanders, and Capitals collectors will find local-team cards mixed throughout. On the trading card side, expect Pokemon singles and sealed product spanning vintage WOTC through the latest Scarlet & Violet sets, plus Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, and Lorcana. Comic boxes round out the room — Golden Age through modern keys, plus back-issue dollar bins — and you will also find graded slabs in locked cases, autographed memorabilia, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies.
This is a single-day event running from 9:30 AM to 3:00 PM, an easy Sunday outing whether you are digging seriously or just browsing with the family. Admission is just $3 at the door, one of the best values on the DMV calendar, which makes it a low-pressure, budget-friendly way to spend a morning. The fire house expo hall is a comfortable, climate-controlled space with an approachable, community feel.
The Annandale Fire House Expo Hall is located at 7128 Columbia Pike, Annandale, VA 22003, just inside the Beltway (I-495) in central Fairfax County. Free on-site parking is available, and the location is an easy drive from Arlington, Falls Church, Alexandria, Fairfax, and DC itself, with plenty of nearby restaurants in the Annandale area for a lunch break before or after the show.
Who should attend? This show fits everyone — families introducing kids to the hobby, casual collectors browsing for fun, set builders chasing specific cards, vintage diggers, modern flippers, prospect hunters, Pokemon and TCG fans, and comic collectors. The low $3 admission and welcoming atmosphere make it especially approachable for first-timers, while the variety across sports, TCG, and comics keeps experienced collectors coming back to each date.
To get the most out of your visit, arrive near the 9:30 AM open for first access to fresh inventory and the best deals before the popular tables thin out. Bring cash for the smoothest transactions, with Venmo or Zelle as a backup since many dealers accept digital payment, and carry a sorted want list with target prices so you can work the room efficiently. Pack penny sleeves, top loaders, and a slab case to protect your pickups, and a trade binder if you like to deal.
