Built by collectors, for collectors.

Why this exists

Before this site, finding a card show in Hawaii meant scrolling Instagram, asking around in group chats, or just hoping you'd hear about it in time. Some shows pulled hundreds of collectors and you'd only find out the day after.

The hobby in Hawaii is real and it's growing. Pokemon, sports cards, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh, Magic, Japanese imports — there's a community for every corner of the trading card world here, scattered across all four major islands. What was missing wasn't the demand. It was a single place to look.

So we built one. Free to use, free to list, no gatekeeping. Just every show, in one place, kept up to date.

What we do

Hawaii Card Shows is a community-driven calendar and directory. We track every confirmed card show, trade night, and recurring event we can find — across Oahu, Maui, the Big Island, and Kauai — and we list every brick-and-mortar card shop on the islands.

We publish recaps after the major shows so the community can see what they missed (and what they don't want to miss next time). We send a weekly newsletter so you don't have to refresh the calendar. And we don't charge any of it.

If you're an organizer, your show belongs here. If you're a shop, your store belongs in the directory. Submit it in 2 minutes and we'll handle the rest.

The community, by the numbers

The site went from a side project to a real piece of the Hawaii hobby in a matter of months. Every number here represents real people in the islands using this to find their next show.

Numbers from the most recent 30-day window. Updated periodically.
