Collectors will be coming to the Broward County Convention Center in Fort Lauderdale on February 21 and 22, 2026. That’s because the Miami/Fort Lauderdale Collect-A-Con will be there that weekend. If you collect sports cards, vintage toys, anime merchandise, Pokemon Trading Cards, video games or something else, that’s where you should be. And Green Vacation Deals can help you save money on this.
Collect-A-Con is the largest anime, trading card and pop culture convention in the United States. You can bring your collection, submit your items for grading and authenticate your items. Plus there will be on site consignments.

Coupon
The best way to save money on the convention is to purchase a 2 Day Pass. I’ve seen a 2 Day Pass going for as much as $101 for 1 Pass by online ticket brokers. Purchase your Pass here and you can save $42 on each ticket.
If you can only attend one day, purchase your ticket here and you can save $55 on the Saturday ticket and $69 on the Sunday ticket. The saving will be automatic.
