SiestaCon 2026 is bringing comics, cosplay, trading cards, gaming tournaments, celebrity guests, and family-friendly fun to Sarasota this weekend. With big comic creators, anime voice actors, vendors, and tournaments for games like Pokémon and Magic The Gathering, the convention is shaping up to be one of Florida’s biggest geek culture events of the year.
Hobbycon Expo is happening Saturday and Sunday, March 7-8, 2026 at Tribe Volleyball, 1801 Green Rd in Pompano Beach. This two-day TCG event features over 300 vendor tables covering Pokémon, One Piece, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Magic: The Gathering, sports cards, anime figures, and more. General admission is free from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM both days. VIP early access starts at 10:00 AM for $15 per day online or $25 at the door. Weekend VIP pass is $25 online only. Free parking available.
Many Yu-Gi-Oh players in the West have started to notice a growing divide between the TCG and the OCG. Japan consistently gets earlier releases, exclusive products, stronger local support, and a more active competitive environment, while players in America often feel like they’re waiting, catching up, or missing out entirely. This isn’t about jealousy — it’s about wondering why the game’s biggest fans outside Japan keep getting less of the Yu-Gi-Oh experience than the region that already has the most.
