It was a nice large venue which helped because there were loads of people. It was really fun to see everything and had plenty of space to relax after lots of walking
Great event
Defo one of our fav shows we’ve attended! All staff pulled it out the bag! Well done scd 👏👏 From Rogers (RBreaks)
Great night met some new people and some quality trades/sales.
We loved it. It was our first card show and now we want to go to one every week. Had the best time and met some incredible people. Will be back next year for sure.
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

You advertise that one piece cards will be present yet around 2/3 vendors had one piece and the rest was Pokémon. I think it should be advertised the breakdown of vendors based on what there selling
First Farnborough Card Con. Started a little overwhelmed but overall a really good experience.
Really enjoyed the show. It was a lot bigger than I expected and had a decent selection of baseball cards on offer.
I had such a great time at card con meeting people with similar loves and hobbies
As a very first time at a card con for myself and my daughter, it was a blast! Everyone was so lovely and welcoming!
Great show
V nice exhibition centre but road signs were very confusing not good Stands look nice but I expected it to be e busier on first day but parking good
The value wasn't really worth the price, felt very underwhelming.
Well organised, from the car park to the food selection. Great range of sellers, and some good activities (such as pack wars, and meeting @norelaxshop)
My son had an amazing time, meeting new people from the community, doing some trades and finally when he got home pulling the Captain Pikachu 🤩
My step son had a great time trading and making some money

Great first ever event. Was very Pokémon heavy which was a shame for a Disney collector. Loves the event though. Everyone was friendly.
Emailed and yet to receive a response
Meeting JP was great 💯👍 Voice actors shouldn't charge £45 for a signature but hay ho, they were very quiet due to the cost. Overall fantastic event that we will now look out for
fun convention
👌
Was amazing
I only went to take my grandson as he is very much into Pokemon, he had a great time we spent most of the day there. He enjoyed the football shooting challenge.
First card show I’ve ever attended.. Enjoyed it very much & will definitely be back next time ..
Great fun! Loads of cool people and stuff to see!
Amazing event, wish we could of stayed longer, with a great mix of different TCG available
Great day out for the family. Lots of trade stands and entertainment.
Absolutely loved CardCon which had everything I needed. Friendly staff and great vendors. I was able to trade and sell majority of my collection. I can’t wait for the next Con to be showing in Farnborough hopefully soon.
It was fun and very enjoyable, a lot of nice and friendly people and loads of different cards to sell and buy
Amazing from start to finish. Amazing venue, lots of space, loading and unloading really easy, great day. Cant wait for the next one 👌
Great day out
Best card show I've been to!
My first time at card con, I thought it was easy to find. Good amount of parking, friendly staff and simple entrance. Everything was spread out enough but I only went for the last 3 hours on Sunday so don’t know how busy early access would have been or at 10/11am. Unfortunately didn’t get to do any meet and greets or see norelaxshop because the queues for them were massive even as the show was coming to an end. I got some good pick ups but had one or two bad experiences with some vendors. Unsure if I’ll want to go next year, would rather go cardmania honestly
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...
