Along with the usual expected stuff like paid autograph/photo sessions, there's a mix of multi-stage performances, events, contests, and presentations going on all day.

The star power is rather big. Along with sports personalities there's "Youtube/Twitch/etc" stars and other media/music figures.

There's also a lot of corporate whoring at the booths rather than people selling cards, though there are dealer tables.

It's 80% rock concert atmophere + famous people doing events + corporate tables shilling stuff...and 20% cards/memorabilia. It's target is a lot of the "shiny stuff" and younger collectors, but they deserve shows, too...so it's fun for some of those kind of collectors.

110% not my thing, but it exists and it's very strong on talent + corporate sponsors.

Thanks for the additional info. A lot more going on than I realized but still not interested in paying that much to get in.
