Card Fest

Card Fest is a growing UK collectibles event bringing together trading card enthusiasts, sports card collectors, artists, independent sellers, families and hobby communities under one roof.

Built around the idea that card shows should feel welcoming, accessible and enjoyable for everyone, Card Fest combines a carefully curated vendor line-up with interactive activities, family entertainment and a strong community atmosphere.
Visitors can expect a diverse mix of TCG, sports cards, graded cards, sealed products, illustrations, handmade goods, accessories, collectibles and specialist vendors, with plenty of opportunities to buy, sell, trade and discover something new.

Card Fest events are designed to be more than simply rows of tables. Alongside the marketplace, we regularly introduce themed activities, scavenger hunts, competitions, giveaways, creative workshops, learn-to-play opportunities and family-friendly experiences that give visitors something to enjoy throughout the day.

Whether you are hunting for a rare card, building a new collection, looking for unique artwork and gifts, introducing your children to the hobby or simply meeting other collectors, Card Fest aims to create an event that feels inclusive, energetic and genuinely enjoyable.

Our events welcome collectors of all ages and experience levels, from first-time visitors and casual fans through to serious collectors and established traders.
Expect a strong mix of Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic: The Gathering, Lorcana, sports cards, anime-inspired artwork, independent creators and wider collectibles, with each event shaped around the venue, season and local community.

Card Fest currently hosts events across the North West and continues to expand into new locations, bringing the same community-led approach to every show.

Collect. Trade. Discover. Connect.
