Overview

Bangalore Card Show (BCS), positioned as India's biggest trading card game (TCG) gathering, is set to return to Bengaluru for its second edition on November 14 and 15, 2026. Organised by Emerald Card Collective Pvt. Ltd., the two-day event will take place at Shubh Convention Center, bringing together collectors, players and enthusiasts from India's growing trading card and collectibles community.

Founded by Bengaluru-based collectors Sagar S and Ryan Satish, Bangalore Card Show was created to bring the global card-show experience to India. Following its inaugural edition in June 2026, which attracted over 1,200 attendees, BCS 2.0 aims to build on that response with a broader platform for collecting, trading, tournaments and community engagement.

The upcoming edition will feature Pokémon, One Piece, sports cards and other trading card games and collectibles. Visitors can also explore vendors, connect with creators, participate in tournaments and find opportunities to trade cards with fellow enthusiasts.

Speaking ahead of the event, Sagar S, Co-Founder of Bangalore Card Show, said, "Bangalore Card Show started with a simple idea, to create the kind of card show we always wanted to experience as collectors in India. The response to our first edition showed us the passion and potential of this growing community. With BCS 2.0, we look forward to bringing together an even wider audience of collectors, players, brands and enthusiasts."

Ryan Satish, Co-Founder of Bangalore Card Show, added, "BCS is about more than trading cards; it is about building a community around a shared passion. Through this edition, we aim to make collecting more accessible to newcomers while creating opportunities for established collectors, brands and creators to connect. Our long-term vision is to strengthen India's collectibles ecosystem and put the country on the global map for trading cards and collectibles."

Beyond buying and selling, the event aims to create an inclusive space for experienced collectors and newcomers to the hobby. Through Emerald Card Collective Pvt. Ltd., the founders also aim to develop a more organised and connected collectibles ecosystem in India, with an emphasis on community, authenticity and shared interests.
