The Southern Colorado Card Show is back for its fall edition on Saturday, September 19, 2026, once again taking over the PCC Ballroom at Pueblo Community College. For collectors in Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Canon City, and across southern Colorado, this recurring show — known to regulars as the SoCo Card Show — is the region's dependable hub for buying, selling, and trading, and the September date arrives at the perfect time, one week after the Pikes Peak Card Show in the Springs, giving local collectors back-to-back weekends of fresh inventory.
More than 90 tables of dealers are expected on the ballroom floor. Sports cards lead the way, with football cards surging as the NFL season gets rolling — expect deep stacks of rookies, parallels, and graded stars — alongside baseball cards during the September pennant chase, plus basketball, hockey, and growing selections of soccer and UFC. Vintage collectors will find pre-1980 cardboard and graded slabs from PSA, BGS, and SGC, while the TCG crowd can hunt Pokemon, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, and Lorcana singles and sealed product. Memorabilia, autographs, comics, Funko Pops, and hobby supplies round out the mix.
Hours are Saturday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM, one day only. Admission is free for everyone, and parking on the Pueblo Community College campus is also free. The PCC Ballroom is located on the campus at 900 W. Orman Avenue in Pueblo, an easy exit off I-25 and roughly 45 minutes from downtown Colorado Springs, with parking just steps from the ballroom entrance.
This is a show built for the whole spectrum of the hobby. New collectors and families will find a welcoming, no-cost way to spend a Saturday, with plenty of affordable cards for kids just getting started. Established collectors treat SoCo as prime hunting ground because table costs are lower than the big metro shows, which often translates to friendlier prices on the floor. Dealers and flippers come to buy as much as sell, so if you have a collection to move, you will find multiple buyers ready to make offers.
A few tips to maximize the day: arrive at opening, because with a hundred-odd tables the best-priced slabs and hottest rookies are typically gone by late morning. Bring cash for the best deals, pack a want list, and bring your trade binder — trading is alive and well at this show, and some of the best pickups happen table-side in card-for-card deals. If you are new to selling, walk your cards past several dealers before accepting an offer to get a feel for real market value.
