The Long Island TCG Show has confirmed that its 2025 convention will take place at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Uniondale, New York. Set for May 3-4, the event promises a substantial upgrade in space and activities, accommodating up to 400 vendor tables and a packed lineup of trading card game (TCG) tournaments, panels, and exclusive fan experiences.
In an announcement on social media, show organizer Rebecca Seepersad shared her excitement about the new venue.
“We’re thrilled to announce that the Long Island TCG Show is leveling up with a brand-new venue,” she wrote. “Get ready for more space, more excitement, and even more opportunities to connect with fellow TCG enthusiasts.”
This larger venue will allow Seepersad, who transitioned from the classroom to convention organizing with the first Long Island TCG event, to meet the growing demand from collectors and players. The event will feature popular attractions, including meet-and-greets with influencers, cosplay-friendly environments, and panels focused on both collecting and playing games like Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and Magic: The Gathering.
Scheduled for Saturday, May 3, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., and Sunday, May 4, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the show will also offer VIP entry starting at 10 a.m. each day. Tickets are available through Ticketmaster, and vendor registration is open for those interested in securing a spot at the larger location.
Seepersad noted the role the community has played in the show’s growth. “We couldn’t have made it this far without the support of our amazing vendors, passionate attendees, devoted volunteers, and remarkable special guests,” she stated in the announcement.
Since its launch, the Long Island TCG Show has become a key event for TCG fans on Long Island, attracting vendors and attendees alike with its mix of activities and dedication to the TCG community. The move to Nassau Coliseum aligns with the show’s goal to expand and provide an enhanced experience for all participants.
