Third Thursday of the Month Sports Card Show — Oct 15, 2026

Third Thursday of the Month Sports Card Show is a monthly card show at the Elks Hall in Woonsocket, held on the third Thursday of the month. Sports cards and Pokémon are the two games on the floor, and admission has been free at recent editions, which makes it an easy weeknight stop for a local collector.

What you'll find on the floor

The show covers sports cards and Pokémon. The two most recent editions, October 15 and the upcoming ones in November and December, are each set up with 30 tables, so this is a mid-sized room rather than a convention-scale floor. Expect a manageable afternoon of browsing and trading, not an all-day event.

Dates and format

The show falls on the third Thursday of each month, and the schedule has held to that pattern since March. Entry has been free at the May, July and October editions and at the editions scheduled for the rest of the year.

The spring and early summer editions carried an entry charge before the show settled into free admission.

History

The show's calendar begins on March 19, 2026, with a run of monthly Thursday dates through July at the Woonsocket Elks Hall. After July, the next edition on the calendar is October 15, which is when the table count of 30 first appears. November 19 and December 17 are already scheduled at the same hall, so the show is carrying its monthly rhythm through the end of the year.

Nearby

Woonsocket Collectible Auth is under a mile from the hall, close enough to pair with a visit. Beast Sports Cards and More in Cumberland and Franklin Sports Cards in Franklin are both within about eight miles, and King Philip Cards & Collectibles in Plainville is a little over eight. On weekends, a separate sports and Pokémon show is about seven miles away, with its next date on November 29.

Who it suits

This show fits local collectors who want a free, low-pressure Thursday option for sports cards and Pokémon, and anyone building a monthly routine of shops and shows in the Woonsocket area. Vendors weighing a table should know the room runs about 30 tables, a size where a steady sports and Pokémon inventory is the draw.
