NTX Universe 2026

NTX Universe 2026 takes over nearly 200,000 square feet of the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center in Dallas from Friday, October 16th through Sunday, October 18th. It’s the flagship event from the team behind the NTX and TX Card Shows series, built as a full pop culture and collectibles weekend rather than just a buying and selling floor.

The show floor is organized into zones: TCG cards (Pokemon, One Piece, Magic, Dragon Ball, and more), sports cards and memorabilia, comic books, toys and collectibles, pop culture, anime, and Artist Alley. Every ticket gives you access to the whole floor. Featured guests include Giancarlo Esposito, Sting, DeMarcus Ware, Dan Green, Eric Stuart, Mickie James, Raymond Cruz, Nick Dragotta, Daniel Warren Johnson, Caitlin Glass, Megan Hollingshead, and Eric Vale, along with Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Mavericks, and Texas Rangers legends. Autographs and meet and greets are sold separately, with pricing and schedules announced closer to the event, and giveaways and contests run all weekend. Kids 5 and under are free with a ticketed adult.
