Moncton hosts fourth Maritime Collectible Expo
The fourth edition of the Maritime Collectible Expo took place at the Colisée de Moncton, drawing over 1,000 visitors. Despite high temperatures in the venue, more than 200 vendors offered a wide variety of items.
Items on display included sports and Pokémon cards, LEGO sets, comic books, coins, artwork, video games, figurines, and miniature cars. Event coordinator Madeleine Lamy noted that nostalgia plays a significant role in the event, as many collectors are revisiting items stored for years that have since increased in value. The expo also saw participation from younger generations interested in trading and collecting.
