THIS IS WHERE IT ALL HAPPENS
For the fourth year in a row, we’re heading back to Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre. But this year, we’re going bigger: 125% bigger! More floor space, more vendors, more experiences, and more energy. This is set to be our biggest show yet.
Just 35 minutes from London Waterloo with excellent transport links, Card Con IV is easy to get to – and impossible to forget.
DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT See what fans are saying.

It was my first ever cards show and the atmosphere and vendors was all nice and respectful was very helpful when coming to trade or sell my cards was very good will definitely be coming to more in the future 😊❤️
Great con, though it did feel like some more empty space could have benefitted, just to spread out some more. More seating areas, and clearer signage for food, toilets etc would be beneficial, but otherwise I had a fantastic time and spent far too much money for my first big convention. The vendors were all varied, and I found plenty to purchase. See you at CCV!
Our first card con. It was awesome. And my wife had a lucky box and got 1/5 of KAKA from a Real Madrid box. Shout out to STATE BOX
Loved every moment will do it all again tomorrow if I could
The Topps stand had nothing but flagship football. i was hoping to buy other ranges at retail price
Good day
Really fun, super well organised and spaced out so nothing was cramped or too crowded around vendors. Well ventilated area so wasn’t hot or stuffy once everyone was inside! Such a great day out and some incredible cards and merch available
There could have been more sports cards, felt like a lot of TCG with sports mixed in. Or if you could try to section the varieties of cards like LCS this makes the experience better in my opinion. Felt like I was getting in the way of TVG fans when trying to see what the vender had.
Don't get me wrong it was a Great event but VIP ticket was not worth it and and I never got any vouchers very lack luster and not a football fan. Would come again but definitely not vip
It was my and my kids first card con and we absolutely love it!
Great day out. Our first card show and definitely wont be our last. Great set up. Will be hoping to come next year
The show had a good number of vendors and lots of places performing demos and competitions which was great. The atmosphere was good. My only suggestion is that the free bus service to/from the station was not well signposted either at the station or the venue and this could be made clear in the future
Yeah, was sick
The event as a whole was pretty good but it was cramped and that's putting it nicely. They could have done with another room to make the walk ways wider. As someone with an autistic partner she was very overwhelmed by all the pushing and shoving just to see a table. It should never be that way, I did get to meet a few streamer and YouTubers I follow and pick up some cool cards but yeah needs to be more space!
Loved it, first one i have been too and bigger and better than i imagined.

Fantastic that children go free! Perfect way of getting the next generation involved in collecting
Well organised! Great spacious layout with various stalls offering different products
This was my first card show and it was excellent. Cannot wait for the next one
I have not been to an event before but felt it was poorly run. We were not let onto the ship floor at 0900 firstly. We were given the wrong wrist bags when our tickets were checked causing confusion when getting the free items which came in drips and drabs. Communication prior to the event was very late coming through via email. I think I received it at 11pm the night before. That's to late to read and know for the event especially when you are up early the next day. When queuing to get in the staff were only asking for VIP ticket holders, this is where we showed our tickets and was given an all weekend wrist band not VIP. No other tickets were checked around us or anywhere in the queue. The doors opened past 0908 with a free for all of everyone coming in. Anyone could have been in that queue that hadn't paid for early bird or VIP. What a waste of money!
Just queue time It didn’t feel like we had an hour before main entry. Opened late, vendors not ready - so eats into the time. This should be 90mins early entry to be honest as your show is so big. Plus more sports are needed - too much of the same Pokemon etc But overall a great show, I loved it bar a couple of niggles
Great

YOUR FIRST CARD SHOW: WHAT TO EXPECT (AND WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT)
Every collector remembers their first card show. The noise. The buzz. Tables stacked with grails. Collectors digging through boxes like they’re on a mission. Collectors digging through boxes, deals happening...
