The SHOW - Sports Cards & Pokemon sets up at Sisk Memorial Baptist Church in Fort Mill, South Carolina on Saturday, October 3, 2026, running 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Fort Mill is the fast-growing south-of-the-border suburb of Charlotte, about twenty minutes from uptown on I-77, and this recurring church-hall show has become the go-to local event for collectors in Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Rock Hill, Indian Land and Ballantyne who do not want to fight traffic into the city.
The name says exactly what the room is: sports cards and Pokémon in roughly equal measure. Sports dealers bring MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL cards with a modern tilt toward Panini Prizm, Select, Mosaic and Optic, Topps Chrome and Bowman Chrome, along with vintage Topps and junk-wax-era boxes for set builders. Carolina Panthers and Charlotte Hornets cards are everywhere, and you will usually find some UFC, boxing and soccer as well. Graded PSA, BGS, SGC and CGC slabs sit in the showcases. The Pokémon side covers singles from vintage Base Set through Scarlet and Violet, sealed booster boxes and elite trainer boxes, and graded slabs from PSA and CGC. A few tables typically carry Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece and Disney Lorcana, plus sleeves, top loaders and other supplies.
This is a one-day Saturday show. Doors open at 9:00 AM and the room closes at 4:00 PM, so an early arrival gives you the full seven hours.
Admission was not published on the listing for this date; church-hall shows in York County typically charge a small door fee or run free with a donation, and children are usually free. Confirm on the show page before you go. Sisk Memorial Baptist Church has a large free parking lot and is a few minutes from the I-77 Gold Hill Road and Carowinds Boulevard exits.
Who should attend? Families with kids who collect Pokémon, sports card collectors on the south side of the metro, modern rookie hunters, and anyone who wants a friendly, low-cost Saturday show close to home. Because The SHOW runs regularly at this venue, it is also a good place to build a relationship with local dealers who will hold cards for you between editions.
Tips: arrive at 9:00 AM for first pick, bring cash and a want list, and pack sleeves and a slab case. Do a full lap before buying, and use the final hour for offers. If you are selling, bring your collection sorted; several dealers buy at the table. Rock Hill and Fort Mill have a cluster of card shops nearby, so a shop stop on the way home is easy.
The October date falls the same weekend as several other regional shows, but it is the only one on the South Carolina side of the line, so the crowd is mostly local and the pace is unhurried. Carowinds is minutes away if you are making a family day of it.
