Thames Valley Card Show

The Thames Valley Card Show is returning to Reading on Saturday 30 and Sunday 31 January 2027, taking over Trunkwell House in Beech Hill for the full weekend. It's a two-day affair, so you can pop in for a single afternoon or spend both days there if you're properly in the thick of it.

For those who haven't been, the show is exactly what the name suggests: a gathering of card collectors and traders. It's the kind of event where you'll find people trading, buying and selling, and spending a good deal of time talking through the cards they've picked up. If you're into collecting, it's a chance to see what's out there and maybe find something you've been hunting for a while.

It's held at Trunkwell House, on Beech Hill Road in Beech Hill, Reading, RG7 2AT. If you're coming from across town, it's worth checking your route beforehand so you know how to get to the Beech Hill side of things.

There are a few ways to do the weekend. A single day pass for Saturday is £12.00, and a single day pass for Sunday is also £12.00, so you can just pick the day that suits you best. If you're planning to make a proper weekend of it, a full weekend pass is £40.00, which covers both days. The show runs across Saturday 30 January and Sunday 31 January 2027 at Trunkwell House, Beech Hill Road, Beech Hill, Reading, RG7 2AT.
