Why We Built The Syndicate
Our mission is to create a world-class platform where TCG vendors, collectors, families, and fans can connect, trade, and grow together.
From Pokémon and One Piece to sports cards and more, every Syndicate show is designed to bring the heart of the hobby together under one roof — with fair deals, real connections, and unforgettable experiences.
Powered By The Pokémon Father
The Card Syndicate was founded by the creator of @thecardsyndicateshow — known across the hobby as The Pokémon Father, AKA The Pokémon Godfather.
After years of live selling, traveling to shows, and building a loyal community online, the vision was simple: build a show that treats vendors like partners, welcomes families, and makes every guest feel like part of the Syndicate.
From One Show To A Multi-City Tour
The Syndicate story started with a single flagship show at the Houston Galleria. Since then it's grown into a touring circuit — with new cities added as the community keeps growing.
Shows Completed in 2026
From spring through summer, Syndicate hit stages across the country — with more already on the calendar.
Active Touring Markets
Currently touring San Antonio, Chicago, Minneapolis, Houston, Tampa, Orlando, and Scottsdale.
Growing The Game The Right Way
Honest transactions, big moments, and a community that looks out for each other. Whether you're a vendor, a casual collector, a parent bringing your kids into the hobby, or someone chasing grails — this show is your home. Join the movement. Build the community. Welcome to the Syndicate.
The Look Of A Syndicate Weekend
