About the Show

Europe’s trading card hobby has grown rapidly since 2020, and the London Card Show has emerged as the continent’s largest weekend gathering of sports card and TCG collectors. The show hosts dealers from across the UK, EU, and increasingly North America, with strong representation across football (soccer), Formula 1, NBA basketball, Pokémon, and Magic: The Gathering categories.

What to Expect

Dealer floor with 100+ vendors, on-site grading drop-off (PSA, Beckett, SGC partner programmes), athlete and influencer signings, hobby content creator panels, and product breaks streaming to social platforms. The show has historically partnered with Football Cartophilic Info Exchange and major UK hobby shops.

Pro Tips

European football (soccer) cards — Panini, Topps Match Attax, Futera — dominate inventory; bring research on UK-specific releases.
VAT and customs considerations apply to North American buyers; consult organisers for buyer guidance.
London transit is straightforward — the venue is typically within Zone 1–2 of the Underground network.
