Year three of the NBCD reboot, 2018 Topps National Baseball Card Day supplies more free cards to collectors via the Hobby store and MLB stadium promotion.

Be sure to mark your calendars as the primary event takes place at Hobby stores on August 11, 2018.

2018 Topps National Baseball Card Day Set Details

Confirmed at the 2018 Topps Industry Conference, the 2018 Topps National Baseball Card Day set also includes an in-stadium aspect in addition to the in-store packs. Like the 2017 set, this means giveaways at the ballparks. Topps expects to distribute over one million packs in stadiums alone. There will also be considerable coverage for NBCD, which could result in increased interest and turnout.

While collectors can count on an exclusive Aaron Judge card issued by Hobby stores that is not found in packs, a new option for 2018 Topps National Baseball Card Day is a second exclusive card that is provided two weeks later on August 25. This second card is for rookie star Rhys Hoskins. Collectors much purchase $10+ in Topps products to receive each incentive chase card.

While rare, there are also limited NBCD autographs.

Available as supplies last, each collector receives one five-card pack.
