HOW THIS DIRECTORY WORKS
A published time is evidence, not a guarantee.
Researched from organiser sourcesEvery session and event links to the retailer page, official listing or store post it came from, with the date PokéStock NZ last checked it.
Schedules changeHoliday hours, prereleases and attendance can move or cancel a normal session. Confirm with the venue before travelling.
Report or add a listingCorrections and missing venues are welcome. Submissions need an evidence link and stay pending until a moderator reviews them.
Looking for a card show or a major event?
Card shows, trading-card markets, collectables festivals and official Pokémon competitions are listed separately, in date order.
