Card Fest Preston: Christmas Special

Card Fest: Preston returns this December for our Christmas Special - bringing together collectors, families, traders, artists, creators and last-minute Christmas shoppers for one huge festive celebration of cards, collectibles and creativity.

Taking over The Atrium at UCLan, the event will feature 65 vendors spanning TCG, sports cards, illustrations, collectibles, gifts and a wide range of other wares, making it the perfect place to hunt for something special, pick up a few last minute presents or simply spend the day browsing with fellow collectors.

Expect everything from Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic The Gathering and other TCG favourites through to sports cards, graded cards, sealed products, artwork, handmade goods, accessories and unique collectible pieces.

But Card Fest: Christmas Special is about much more than shopping.

Throughout the day, visitors can get involved in a packed programme of festive activities with a TCG and anime twist, including arts and crafts, games, Christmas-themed challenges and interactive activities for collectors of all ages.

Take part in the Card Fest Christmas Scavenger Hunt, explore the venue in search of hidden clues and festive surprises, or get creative by designing and making your very own TCG card to take home.

There will be a variety of games and activities running throughout the event, giving visitors plenty to do between browsing tables, trading cards and discovering new vendors. 

Whether you are a serious collector, casual fan, sports card enthusiast, anime lover, parent looking for a fun family day out, or simply searching for a unique Christmas gift, there is something for everyone.

Expect a welcoming, family-friendly environment, a huge variety of vendors, plenty of opportunities to buy, sell, trade and discover, and a Christmas atmosphere with the unmistakeable Card Fest twist.

Come and celebrate the festive season with collectors from across the North West and beyond.
