It’s no secret that Panini America has made a habit over the years of annually stealing the show at the National Sports Collectors Convention every summer. From its fan-packed booths to its wrapper-redemption programs to its unrivaled interaction with — and embracing of — collectors, Panini America pulls out all of the stops for the industry’s marquee show.
But two years ago in Baltimore, Panini America raised the bar on itself — and to unthinkable heights — with the inaugural National VIP Party that offered the company’s biggest collectors and business partners the rare opportunity to rub elbows with special guests Gordie Howe, John Riggins, Pudge Rodriguez and more in a laid-back party setting with live music provided by Biz Markie.
Last year in Chicago, Panini America raised the bar yet again with special guests Yasiel Puig, Johnny Damon, Pedro Martinez, Chris Chelios, Dan Hampton and more, engaging a record number of party-goers to a live soundtrack provided by the legendary DJ Kool. All the while, party guests were treated to special VIP Gold Packs, drinks, food, free autographs and memories that will last a lifetime.
Later this month in Cleveland, Panini America’s National VIP Party returns with a very special venue and some great guests that will be announced as we get closer to the Panini VIP Party.
Collectors can gain entry into the exclusive, invitation-only National VIP Party by purchasing $7,500 worth of select Panini America products from one of six approved vendors during the 2014 National Sports Collectors Convention: Atlanta Sports Cards, Blowout Cards, Chicagoland Sports Cards, Dave & Adam’s Card World, Marty’s Sportscards Exchange and Steel City Collectibles.
