Wax and Draft — Sports, TCG & More hits Infusion Brewing Company again on Sunday, September 27, 2026, and the September edition lands at one of the best moments on the hobby calendar. Football season is a month deep, baseball's pennant races are peaking, and the NBA and NHL are weeks from tipping off — which means dealer tables at this show carry fresh inventory across every major sport at once.
If you have not been to a Wax and Draft show before, the format is simple and social: card dealers set up inside a working Omaha craft brewery, and collectors browse, trade, and talk shop over a pint. The dealer lineup spans the whole hobby. Sports tables carry MLB, NFL, and NBA singles from vintage through current releases, plus graded slabs, autographs, relic cards, and sealed wax boxes. TCG dealers bring Pokemon singles and sealed product, Magic: The Gathering, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, and Lorcana. You will also find memorabilia, supplies, and the kind of oddball vintage finds that only surface at smaller local shows.
Hours are 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and entry is free — no ticket, no door fee, just walk in. That free admission makes this one of the lowest-friction shows in Nebraska: bring the family, stay twenty minutes or four hours, and spend your budget on cardboard instead of a cover charge.
Infusion Brewing Company provides a genuinely pleasant backdrop, with house-brewed beers on tap, non-alcoholic options, food, ample seating, and free nearby parking. The taproom crowd keeps the energy up all afternoon, and the show regularly converts curious brewery patrons into first-time collectors, which gives the room a fresh, welcoming feel that hotel shows rarely match.
The show suits nearly everyone: families introducing kids to collecting, league players hunting TCG singles for their next deck, set builders working through want lists, and sharper-eyed collectors looking to buy graded cards below big-city prices. Sellers are well served too — the casual setting makes it easy to shop a binder around and collect multiple offers without pressure.
A few pointers for show day: arrive at open if you are hunting anything specific, because the best graded cards and hot rookies leave the building early. Bring cash — most dealers here take cards, but cash still closes deals faster and often a little cheaper. Keep a want list handy, and do not skip the bargain boxes, which at this series have produced everything from vintage stars to playoff-bound rookies mispriced before their breakout. If you are trading, top loaders and binders beat loose stacks every time. And since the series runs monthly, mark the October 25, November 29, and December 27 dates now; regulars will tell you the fall run at Infusion is the best stretch of the year.
