The first Hampshire Card Show featuring around 40 vendor tables with Pokémon, trading card games, sports cards and vintage collectibles.
The Hampshire Card Show arrives at the Novotel Southampton on Saturday 29 August, the first show of its kind in the county. It's put on by the organisers of the Reading Card Show, and it's aimed at collectors, enthusiasts and traders of all types of collectible cards across Hampshire and beyond. The room is laid out with around 40 vendor tables stocking Pokémon and other trading card games, sports cards and vintage or rare finds, so there's plenty to look through whether you're hunting for a specific card or just browsing.
It's open to all ages, so it works as a family outing as much as a proper trading day. If you're driving, there's free on-site parking at the hotel, provided you register with reception when you arrive. One thing to keep in mind: filming and photography will be taking place throughout the day, and that material will be used to promote future shows.
