CardVault by Tom Brady Expands to Pittsburgh

CardVault by Tom Brady, a pioneering national retailer focusing on sports cards, trading cards, and authenticated memorabilia, is set to elevate Pittsburgh’s vibrant sports culture with the grand opening of its 20th store. Slated for November 1, 2026, the new location at The Terminal in the historic Strip District is a significant step in the retailer's national expansion, following its successful openings in cities like Los Angeles and Indianapolis.

Pittsburgh, known for its rich sports history and passionate fan base, is home to legendary teams such as the Steelers, Penguins, and Pirates, making it an ideal market for CardVault’s unique offerings. Chris Costa, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of CardVault, expressed enthusiasm for this expansion, stating, "Pittsburgh is one of America's great sports cities, and we're excited to bring CardVault to its passionate community of fans and collectors." This sentiment encapsulates the company’s mission to introduce a new generation of collectors to the thrilling world of sports memorabilia.

The new store is strategically located at 1659 Smallman Street, where it will offer an extensive range of products including single cards, sealed boxes, packs, and collectibles. Renowned brands available in-store include Topps, Panini, Upper Deck, Pokémon, and Fanatics Authentic. Additionally, customers will have the option to submit their cards for professional grading, partnering with esteemed grading services such as PSA, Beckett, and SGC.

A signature feature of the store will be CardVault's exclusive vault, which will house a rotating collection of autographed memorabilia, from helmets and jerseys to bats and balls, adding an extra layer of excitement for collectors and sports fans alike. The grand opening will kick off with a celebration, featuring special giveaways—including limited-edition Pittsburgh-themed hats for the first 25 customers and a chance to win a signed baseball from Paul Skenes. Those eager to partake in the festivities can also enter for the opportunity to win tickets to the Pittsburgh Steelers game the same day, with details revealed in-store at 11 AM ET.

The store will maintain operating hours from 10 AM to 8 PM daily and will host various events such as trade nights, guest appearances, exclusive product launches, and other community activities tailored for local sports lovers and collectors.
