Three-day trading card and collectibles convention with hundreds of vendors to buy, sell, and trade across sports cards, Pokemon, Disney, Magic and more.
Atlanta Card Fest takes over the Atlanta Expo Center North from Friday, October 16, through Sunday, October 18. It's three full days of buying, selling, and trading trading cards, collectibles, and autographs, with hundreds of vendors set up across the floor. The focus is broad: sports cards, Pokémon, Disney, Magic, and more, so it works whether you're hunting for a specific grail or just want to dig through bins and see what turns up.
If you're coming for the trading, Saturday is the day to be there. The show opens at 9 AM for VIPs and 10 AM for general admission, and it runs late into the evening with a Trade Night starting at 6 PM, with the doors staying open until 8 PM. That's the longest window of the weekend, and it's when most of the swapping happens. Friday opens at 11 AM for VIPs and 12 PM for general admission, closing at 6 PM. Sunday is the shorter day, closing at 3 PM.
There are two ways to get in. General admission is $10 to $20 plus fees and taxes, which works out to about $11.90 per day. VIP admission is $20 plus fees and taxes, about $23.48 per day, and it gets you in the doors one hour before general admission. If you're planning to buy something specific, that extra hour can make a difference. Just keep in mind that tickets are non-refundable, non-cancellable, and non-transferable.
