Popping up in a city near you are the Big Show Card Show‘s new pop-up TCG events! When & where? You’ll just have to stay on your toes and keep your eyes peeled so that you can jump at a chance to shop tables upon tables of Pokemon, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic: The Gathering, Riftbound, and other top TCGs (Trading Card Games)! The first Pop-Up was held on January 18, 2026 at the Embassy Suites by Hilton Piscataway Somerset. And just like a true pop-up, these events could appear just about anywhere and are announced just as spontaneously.

While a traditional Big Show Card Show could feature over 150 vendor tables, these Pop-Ups offer a slightly more condensed experience with anywhere from 50 to 125 tables, which means fewer tables, faster sell-outs, and even a little competition for the best finds of the show. We’re talking about all of the best in raw, sealed, and graded cards, plus collectibles like video games, figures & statues, 3D printed items, and art. From loose booster packs to Pristine 10 grails, Big Show Card Show Pop-Ups still have it all!

If you missed this one, there’s always the next! The Big Show Card Show’s popping up again on January 25 at The Westwood in Garwood, NJ!
