The TTS Expos Sports Card Show comes to Raleigh, North Carolina on Saturday and Sunday, July 25–26, 2026, delivering a full weekend of sports card buying, selling, and trading in the heart of the Triangle. Running 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM both days at Building 4 in Raleigh, this two-day format gives collectors the flexibility to dig Saturday, sleep on a decision, and come back Sunday to close the deal.
The vendor floor is sports-card-first. Expect deep inventory across MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, UFC, boxing, and soccer — vintage Topps, Bowman, and Fleer, 1980s and 1990s wax-era boxes, and walls of modern Panini Prizm, Donruss Optic, Select, Mosaic, and Topps Chrome, with prospect-rich Bowman Chrome for the rookie chasers. Local-team collectors will find Carolina Hurricanes, Carolina Panthers, Charlotte Hornets, and NC State, UNC, and Duke alumni cards throughout the room. Locked display cases hold graded PSA, BGS, SGC, and CGC slabs at every price point, and many tables also stock sealed wax, autographed memorabilia, and hobby supplies like sleeves, top loaders, and binders.
Hours run 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM on both Saturday, July 25 and Sunday, July 26. No registration or advance ticket is required — just show up. Saturday typically brings the deepest inventory and the biggest crowd, while Sunday afternoons are famous in the hobby for end-of-show deals as dealers look to lighten the load before packing up.
Building 4 is centrally located in Raleigh, easy to reach from I-40, I-440, and US-1, with parking available on site. The central location makes it a quick trip from Cary, Durham, Chapel Hill, Wake Forest, Garner, and Clayton, and downtown Raleigh's restaurant scene is minutes away for a lunch break between laps of the floor.
Who should attend? Serious sports card collectors and dealers will get the most from the two-day format, but set builders, vintage diggers, modern flippers, prospect hunters, and families introducing kids to the hobby will all find plenty to work with. First-timers should not be intimidated — weekend shows like this are among the friendliest places to learn the hobby, and dealers are generally happy to talk through grading, pricing, and what to collect first.
To maximize the weekend, arrive at Saturday's 10:00 AM open for first access to fresh inventory, and bring cash for the smoothest negotiations, with Venmo or Zelle as backup since most dealers accept digital payment. Work from a sorted want list with target prices, pack penny sleeves, top loaders, and a slab case for your pickups, and bring a trade binder if you like to deal. If you are bargain-hunting rather than chasing specific cards, Sunday after 2:00 PM is when prices get softest.
