Card Con is back - and this time, we've gone bigger in every direction. Card Con IV takes over the iconic Farnborough International for a full weekend of buying, selling, trading, competing, and collecting. Hundreds of vendors, live auctions, tournament play, special guests, and so much more. This is the UK hobby event of the year, and it's not one you'll want to sit out.
Live Auctions & Box Breaks
Bigger stage, bigger moments, bigger pulls. Iconic vintage breaks and exclusive live auction lots will be running all weekend long — the kind of moments that make the hobby unforgettable. Whether you're watching, bidding, or breaking, the energy on the main stage is something else entirely.
Tournament Zone
Hosted by Elemental Cards, the Tournament Zone brings organised events, structured match play, and serious prize opportunities across the full weekend. Step up, take your seat, and play to win.
Trade Zone & Swap Shop
The heart of the hobby. Connect with collectors from across the UK and beyond on our expanded trading floor. Whether you're hunting down that final card for your set or looking to move on a collection, this is where deals get done. Powered by Pokistock.
Breakers Lounge - Next Level
