Will there by any PCGS shows this year?

GoBust

I saw on Laura's weekly report that no PCGS shows have been listed yet for the year. Has anyone heard what the situation is for these shows in 2025? I've always enjoyed attending them when able.

Don’t know about PCGS show but IMEX has been scheduled for Nashville Sept 3-6

A few things to throw into the mix but my final answer is 'I really don't know'.

At the Dec 2024 PCGS show in LV someone said they asked and were told there are some being scheduled but not ready to post yet (or something like that).

A friend had made his list of shows and had included a pcgs show at Park MGM in July (date TBD) and another in Dec (date and location TBD). I asked where that came from and said the pcgs show calendar. But I have not seen it there and check off and on. So it could have been posted and then removed.

Finally the lates pcgs market report magazine in the introduction states for 2025: "We have a full calendar of pcgs member only shows as well as onsite grading at major shows around the United States."
But.... the list in the back of the magazine is the same as online.

PS when I checked the show schedule now it did not show me the old format but a newer one but same shows shown.

I haven’t heard anything about PCGS shows for 2025 yet either. I sure hope they announce something soon—I’ve always enjoyed going when I could. They’re a good chance to meet other collectors and get some grading done.

If they don’t have their own shows, they might still be at some of the bigger events like the FUN Show or Long Beach Expo. They usually show up at those.

Let’s keep an ear out, and if anyone hears news, share it here!

Pcgs really needs to bring back the New Orleans member show in May

The page, https://www.pcgs.com/membersonlyschedule, only lists the past December show.

The parent company of PCGS owns the Long Beach show, so I would hope they show up!

And that’s probably why NGC no longer attends….

Hopefully there will be one on the east coast.

NGC attended the Long Beach show for many years (when, as far as I know, PCGS had the same affiliation with the show that it does now). So there must be some other reason(s) that they stopped going.

The 'word' is that pcgs is in the final stages of coordinating & scheduling the members only shows. Potentially announced within a couple weeks.
Of course no guarantees.
Now back to the show.

Thanks for the "word"

Thanks, I noticed it is May 22 Thursday to May 24 Saturday.

The PCGS LV shows in the past were a dealer day on Tuesday and open on Wednesday. With Saturday just being a 'clean up' type of day (picking up submissions or packing and leaving). Many leaving on Friday.
I will guess that they will have a dealer set up day on Wednesday but that is a guess.

Was writing this one down and noticed this is the beginning of Memorial Day weekend.
Not sure about this one now.

And while updating that show, might as well note the Members only show in Irvine, CA on the same dates as the 'paused' Long Beach show previously scheduled for Fall 2025.
