Stack’s Bowers Galleries Concludes First Long Beach Expo after Recent Transition of Ownership. Dates for Expos in 2026 and 2027 Announced

The recent Long Beach Expo, held February 18-20, attracted strong public attendance and a full Bourse floor as hundreds of dealers and thousands of public attendees made the trek to Southern California to participate in the first such event operated under the Stack’s Bowers Galleries banner.

As the ribbon cutting ceremony concluded on the first day of public attendance, an almost endless line of public attendees rushed into the Expo. The bourse was bustling with an intimate and lively atmosphere, and it was tight navigating the aisles of the slightly smaller floorplan.

As the Expo enters its 62nd year in operation, many table holders reported their best Long Beach Expo ever. Public attendees were excited to once again participate in the largest and oldest coin show on the West Coast.

Show management continues to coordinate with new and existing vendors to upgrade the event as well as bring new offerings to the Expo. Stack’s Bowers Galleries is pleased to announce that the firm’s second Long Beach Expo will be held September 9-11, 2026, with table holder set-up on September 8. The first expo of 2027 will be held March 10-12, 2027, with table holder set-up on March 9. All events will continue to be held at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center in sunny Long Beach, California.
