Looking for a quick way to see sports cards release dates for sets that are on the way? Want to know when they’re expected to arrive? Look no further. This 2025 sports card release calendar has a schedule for all the baseball, basketball, football, hockey, racing, soccer cards and more that have been announced so far.

Please note that print runs for cards without serial numbers have not been announced.

Are non-sport and entertainment cards your thing? You’ll find a separate tab for those, too.

And if you’re looking for what has already been released this year, there’s a section of the sports card release calendar for that, too.

This page is actually more than just sports cards release dates. The links take you to our detailed set guides that include checklists (usually with full team set breakdowns), comprehensive information and more.

Where Is the Release Date for the Set of Sports Cards I Love?

Manufacturers announce details for their products at different intervals. Currently, Topps and Panini go public with their plans one or two months in advance. So if you don’t at least see a release date above, there’s a good chance it’s at least a couple of months away.

Until recently, Topps revealed their release dates and information around six months out. That appears to have changed as Fanatics takes over more of the day-to-day.

Upper Deck’s sports card release dates are usually several months out as well. That said, these often change and, historically, get pushed back.

If a set isn’t listed above, that does not mean that it isn’t happening. This is especially true for established brands that have been around for many years. It’s more likely that the set simply hasn’t been announced yet.

Why Do Sports Card Release Dates Change and Get Delayed?

Manufacturers don’t typically give specific reasons why release dates get pushed back. Not every set is the same, as well. Autographs are one of the culprits. If one of the companies has a set almost ready to go and are expecting some significant or significant number of autographs to be returned shortly, a release date might shift to reduce the number of redemptions. Card companies don’t like them, either.

Supply chain issues are still causing some havoc. Some of the materials needed for modern sports cards have been in short supply. While things seem to be improving, the manufacturers and printers are still clawing their way back to a normal schedule. The hobby’s growth has also meant more demand for production facilities as well with some sets getting larger print runs.

These are just a couple of reasons why the sports card release calendar if constantly shifting.

      @Ryan – It’s priced online so I’m guessing it should be in the next issue.

    • Ryan Cracknell 1 April, 2019 at 17:46

      @cam – It hasn’t been announced yet, but it’ll likely be similar to last year (assuming it’s returning).

  1. Veronica 2 October, 2019 at 21:51

    Hey! Any word on 2019 Topps MLB Gallery? I know it is the Walmart exclusive and it was released in November last year. I can’t seem to find anything about it as of this date.

    • Ryan Cracknell 8 October, 2019 at 09:49

      @Veronica – When it’s announced, it’ll be added. Pretty safe bet, though, as there were Preview inserts elsewhere this year.

    • Ryan Cracknell 17 October, 2019 at 21:39

      @dorianhood – You can find card boxes and sets at hobby shops and several online retailers as well.

  2. Dave 23 January, 2020 at 16:11

    Hi Ryan,

    Any ideas on when 2019-20 National Treasures and 2019-20 Flawless basketball will be released in 2020? Thanks in advance!

    Dave

    • Ryan Cracknell 23 January, 2020 at 22:32

      @Dave – Details and dates haven’t been announced yet. Likely to be similar to last year, would be my guess. We’ll add them here as soon as they’re announced.

  3. David 4 February, 2020 at 15:32

    Any idea why the Upper Deck Avengers Endgame/ Captain Marvel cards got pushed to end of February from January?

    • Ryan Cracknell 7 February, 2020 at 12:10

      @David – Delays are pretty normal for a lot of entertainment sets. Lots of levels of approval, autograph collection, etc.

  4. Sean M Click 17 February, 2020 at 13:16

    Hi Ryan,

    I left a reply earlier that seems to have disappeared (so I apologize if this is a duplicate). But I had asked about Topps MLS 2020. I don’t see any information about it anywhere; does that mean it’s not happening? Any information is appreciated. And if Topps isn’t doing it, is anyone else? Thanks!

    • Ryan Cracknell 20 February, 2020 at 22:15

      @Sean – Nothing has been announced. It looks like there was a Topps Now card from the end of January. Not sure if that hints at anything further.

  5. David 19 February, 2020 at 14:06

    Hi Ryan,

    Thanks to answer about marvel Endgame cards. It does have the best looking auto inserts to date. Now it’s gone from February to March 18 2020. I hope it doesn’t change again. really want these cards!

  6. Tracy 25 May, 2020 at 08:02

    How do you know which retail store products will be released at? For ex: the 19-20 panini mosaic basketball blasters. I wasn’t aware blaster boxes were going to be sold at Target. I’m new to collecting.

  7. Marco Koen 1 November, 2020 at 05:44

    Hi Ryan, new to card collecting. When the soccer collections become available eg 2019-20 TOPPS CHROME UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE SOCCER. Being from NZ, whats my best way to purchase online on release day? Thanks so much

    • Ryan Cracknell 3 November, 2020 at 12:08

      @Marco – If you don’t have any shops in NZ, you could research to see if there are any areas nearby that carry soccer. Topps’ UK site may carry it, but not sure.

    • Ryan Cracknell 9 December, 2020 at 18:31

      @Matt – Topps teased it a couple weeks back with some images so it should be on the way at some point. We add sets as they’re formally announced.

  8. Eric 14 December, 2020 at 15:38

    I can’t find any info on 2020 Panini Select Football release? Not Draft Dicks but the Standard. Maybe I’m blind?

    • Ryan Cracknell 27 December, 2020 at 22:42

      Nothing has been formally announced that we’re aware of. If and when it is, it’ll be added.

    • Ryan Cracknell 1 February, 2021 at 14:27

      @Cody – Very, very likely. Things are only added to the calendar once they are formally announced.

  9. J 30 January, 2021 at 17:42

    Does leaf sell to the general public through their sure? Leaf Metal Draft was scheduled yesterday and can’t find any info anywhere? Anyone?

    • Ryan Cracknell 1 February, 2021 at 14:29

      @J – They had special Red, White and Blue boxes on their website. Leaf focuses primarily on hobby distribution through shops and online retailers.

  10. Tim 1 February, 2021 at 22:10

    Hi all, 33 y/o getting back into collecting after digging out my cards from the 90’s! How does one go about purchasing cards nowadays? Is it online on release date or will the big box stores get inventory on same release date or soon thereafter. Thanks for help!

    • Ryan Cracknell 2 February, 2021 at 12:13

      @Tim – We post hobby release dates. Retail can vary by product, sometimes showing up a little earlier, sometimes a while later. It can also vary by location.

  11. James 3 February, 2021 at 13:18

    New to the scene. When do the base set of NFL panini cards usually drop during the year? Will this 2021 release date be later in relation to years past?

  12. James Duggan 19 February, 2021 at 14:17

    Two things: I think the prizm premier league release date got pushed back again to the 30th, and secondly would you guess the optic or donruss/optic products will be realesed this year for soccer?

    • Ryan Cracknell 22 February, 2021 at 15:22

      @James – Haven’t heard anything about soccer products beyond this. Whatever’s announced, we’ll add.

    • Ryan Cracknell 16 July, 2021 at 21:00

      The most recent soccer products have been 2020-21 releases, even the most recent ones from the last month or two. When 2021-22 sets start getting announced, they’ll be added.

  13. Jonathan Dutra 8 August, 2021 at 07:51

    Any idea on when the 2020-21 NFL National treasures will be released ? ( Not collegiate version) . & If it’s similar to last year on the date which month was that

  14. ztoasports 2 September, 2021 at 10:48

    HI Ryan-

    Will there be a NFL Prizm and Prizm Mosaic set that is not the “draft pick” version? Or is the “draft pick” version the only thing coming out this year?

    Thank you

    • Ryan Cracknell 2 September, 2021 at 11:49

      There should be NFL versions given their popularity but neither has been formally announced as of yet.

  15. Matt 19 October, 2021 at 18:36

    Hey Ryan, what’s going on with 2021 Playoff Football? I noticed that there is Chronicles Draft Picks but this is not actual Playoff. It usually releases in November but I can’t find it on any release calendars. Was it replaced with this Draft Picks version?

  16. Nat 13 January, 2022 at 22:21

    I don’t think that date is quite right (1/14) for 2021-22 Panini Prizm Premier League Soccer. Their Instagram confirmed today that 2021 Panini National Treasures Racing will be out tomorrow, but nothing on soccer. Have any updates on that? Super excited!

  17. Jeff F 1 March, 2022 at 20:51

    Any update on Upperdeck Goodwin Champions 2021? Is that ever going to come out, or are they scrapping it and moving on to 2022 Goodwin Champions?

    • Ryan Cracknell 2 April, 2022 at 00:07

      He might be in Topps Series 2. If they hold off for an Angels card, it might be Update towards the end of the season.

  18. Richard Lane 10 May, 2022 at 12:07

    Re: 2022 Panini SCORE Football.
    This is always one of the first releases for 2022 football, usually released in June. I do not see anything regarding this release anywhere on your site, or any other site. Do you know when/if this will be released? I hope it has not been discontinued.

    • Ryan Cracknell 11 May, 2022 at 11:26

      @Richard – We post details on sets as we get them. Everything across the industry is behind right now due to supply chain issues. No 2022 NFL sets have been formally announced yet.

  19. Juan 27 September, 2022 at 18:29

    Hello, do you know if or when the 2022 Panini Donruss Football Factory Sealed Set 400 Cards comes out? Probably at target?

  20. Ed 5 October, 2022 at 14:00

    Any idea IF or WHEN Score / Donruss / Panini will release a full football set? The 400 card one that you sometimes find in retail stores? Not individual packs or boxes with individual packs. Thanks so much.

  21. Rick King 27 January, 2023 at 13:07

    I am dismayed that nothing has been mentioned about 2023 Topps Heritage baseball. It’s the only thing I collect, and if it’s not going to be here this year, I’m going to have a boring baseball season.

    Will there be Heritage this year?

  22. James 20 February, 2023 at 13:20

    Has Fanatics made an announcement one way or the other regarding Heritage? There seems to be absolutely no information online concerning the fate of this set. Is there a reason Fanatics would be playing coy with this (which does not seem like a strong business model)?

  23. Justin 22 February, 2023 at 08:45

    The way things are going Topps will still be releasing 2022 baseball product when 2024 Series one comes out.

  24. Jeromi Ellioty 9 May, 2023 at 11:58

    Hey quick question…does anyone know when 2022 UFC Chronicles will be priced and available in the online price guide?

  25. Joey 9 May, 2023 at 12:03

    Do you think there will be a Women’s UEFA Champions League set again this year?

  26. Ryan 22 June, 2023 at 12:00

    What is the biggest difference with Topps, now that Fanatics bought them out? I saw an article from 2022 that said the hobby was down…but it looks like Topps prices are still at an all time high, especially with hobby boxes. It still blows my mind how expensive boxes can be and how little a seller can get for return on numbered cards. If anyone enjoys numbers, just run some stat probability equations to see what the odds of receiving a numbered auto of a specific player are….how many cases would you have to buy to guarantee a hit…try six figures.

  27. Mike 28 June, 2023 at 09:33

    With the issuance of 2022-23 TOPPS CHROME UEFA CLUB COMPETITIONS in June, will there also be a Sapphire release of this product? Thank you.

    • Ryan Cracknell 30 June, 2023 at 15:25

      If it’s not here, we do not know if or when a particular release is coming out.

  28. Jacques Cloutier 29 June, 2023 at 07:54

    Hi Sir !

    I want to know if you can grade and encapsulate jumbo or oversized cards . ?

    If it’s possible I have

    2 5’’/7’’ cards

    45 3 ½’’/5’’ cards

    3 4 ½’’/6’’ cards

    2 8’’/3 1/2’’ cards

    For a total of 52 Hockey and Baseball cards to be graded and encapsulated. I want to have a submission

    Is it possible to make a first verification with you before send it ? i want to deposit my cards directly to your office in person

    Thanks Jacques Cloutier

    • Ryan Cracknell 30 June, 2023 at 15:27

      Nothing has been announced yet. Players are not eligible for NHL cards until they make their debuts.

  29. Shad Hannah 11 August, 2023 at 10:22

    Yes. I was just wondering when the brand new 2023-24 basketball card hobby boxes will be released containing the newest drafted rookies into the NBA? I don’t want to miss out in picking up a few boxes to try and grab up that generational talent in San Antonio. Please lmk and thank you. I can’t find any information out on it anywhere. Strange because they used to release the Topps basketball boxes every end of September to mid October but haven’t heard a thing on them this year yet. Thank you for your time and hope to hear back from you. Shad

    • Ryan Cracknell 11 August, 2023 at 14:18

      Sets are added as they’re announced. Nothing for 2023-24 basketball has been announced yet.

  30. James 13 August, 2023 at 11:59

    Hi Ryan, Will Panini be releasing 2023 Prestige Football this season? Thank you and stay safe and healthy. James

  31. Edgar Lerma 20 October, 2023 at 19:48

    1. With no 2023 Panini Downtown Kings, will there be no Downtown Baseball cards for 2023?
    2. 2022 Panini Playbook Football came out as Hobby and Mega Boxes? No Hanger or Blaster Boxes???

  32. Scott S 25 October, 2023 at 10:24

    Is there any word on Topps Heritage Minors for 2023? This usually released in November or December

  33. Jeremiah 11 February, 2024 at 10:57

    I am a Women’s College basketball fan. Are men’s and women’s cards combined? Where is my best place to start for women’s cards?
    Thanks ,
    Jeremiah

    • Ryan Cracknell 15 February, 2024 at 11:13

      Topps’ Bowman University product have been including some women’s cards. Not a ton but some.

    • Ryan Cracknell 4 March, 2024 at 12:35

      If it’s not here, we do not know if or when a particular release is coming out.

  34. Juan Gomez 12 May, 2024 at 11:52

    Would we ever see Panini Football Cards such brands as Prestige, Playoffs, Donruss Elite, and Select in 2024?

  35. Jim 22 June, 2024 at 14:11

    Any idea what happening with Allen & Ginter? No Chrome for 2023 and now it looks like nothing for 2024??

  36. John Jordan Crandall 4 July, 2024 at 22:33

    Why is the August 2024 Football Beckett missing a whole bunch of years?

  37. CJ 22 August, 2024 at 09:02

    Is there a list of brands of football rookies in college uniforms that have the school logos? Why don’t all brands show the logos? Is there a certain brand that has the rights to the NCAA logos?

  38. john bateman 17 March, 2025 at 19:04

    So Strange Middle of March 2025 and 90% of the products with release dates are Panini and Upper Deck with Topps just not there. – Don’t know what their Strategy is – Collectors don’t even know if there is going to be a series 2, Bowman, 2025 Heritage – why even say your money for it.

  39. Jason B. 19 May, 2025 at 14:44

    So….just not going to list 2025 Topps Series 2? Checklist and Odds have been up at Topps for several weeks and release date of June 11.

  40. Michael 28 May, 2025 at 11:19

    I kind of was wondering the same thing as Jason B. noticed Topps Series 2 wasn’t up yet. Just wondering if this was an area that wasn’t going to be updated anymore or had gotten missed.

  41. Rod 8 June, 2025 at 17:45

    Ryan , do you know if there will be a Nathan Rourke card in the base set of the 2025 Upper Deck CFL football set? Thanks, Rod
