About Manchester Card Show X Northern Sports Card Show

The Manchester Card Show and Northern Sports Card Show have collaborated to bring forth an enormous card show catering to the UK scene. This spectacular event will be held at the University of Bolton Stadium. In their previous venture in Bolton, NSCS utilized the Lion of Vienna suite, but this time they are expanding to include the Hall of Fame suite as well, transforming it into the largest card show ever witnessed in the northern region.

Reps from CGC’s UK office will be accepting submissions, answering questions and providing information on CGC and CGC Trading Cards services. Keep reading for further instructions on how to get your submission ready.
