We're excited to offer a variety of fun activities outside of the main tournament. Get a sneak peek at some of the activities below. 

 

Review the daily programming schedules here:  Friday - Saturday - Sunday

 

The Programming Stage is back for EUIC 2026 and it’s bigger and more exciting than ever! We’re bringing back fan-favorite panels like the Trading Card Game Artist Spotlight panels and the Cosplay Showcase. But that’s not all – we're bringing new panel formats to the Programming Stage! Check out the full schedules linked above. 

 

Excited to showcase your newest Pokémon Cosplay? Apply for the Pokémon Cosplay Showcase where guests can take the stage and show off their amazing costumes! As you prepare, please note that there are some guidelines as to what is allowed on stage. Be sure to review the full rules and the terms and conditions. Registered attendees can apply here through January 26, 2026. 

 

A few reminders – Cosplay is for everyone! Attendees are encouraged to cosplay regardless of their skill level, gender identity or expression, race, ethnicity, disability, religion, body type, age, or other identities in a respectful and family-friendly way. We also want to remind you that cosplay is never consent; Always ask before taking a photo of someone.

 

Join us for Autograph and Meet and Greet featuring some of your favorite TCG Artists, Pokémon Partners and Notable Trainers! This year, the autograph and meet and greet sessions are leveling up with their own space! This dedicated space will make it easier than ever for guests who have been randomly selected from the Interest Lists to meet their favorite Special Guests.

 

To help with line management, all autograph sessions will utilize an Interest List. Guests may register for Interest Lists from 20, January 2026 though 3, February 2026 and will be notified if they have been randomly selected by 9 February. Learn about the Interest List here. 

 

Looking to showcase and trade your Pokémon items with other Trainers? Join us at a Trader Table where you can do just that! If you’re only looking to browse, you can visit as an “Explorer” and check out everyone’s sweet collections.     

 

Fun and games for the whole family!   

 

Shop local game and card shops onsite for some of the best Pokémon product! Whether you’re a dedicated collector, an enthusiast, or just looking for unique items, the Merchant Area has something for everyone!  

 

Journey alongside other Trainers and share in the memories of Pokémon! View Europe International Championships history, iconic Pokémon TCG cards, a wide array of Pokémon video games and their collective consoles, and more as you celebrate the history of EUIC. 

 

Find fun collectible pins and trade with fellow fans at our Pin Trading kiosk. We encourage you to bring your official Pokémon pins for trading! Select pins from Pokémon Center will be available for purchase as well.
