2026 Upper Deck National Hockey Card Day Details
2026 Upper Deck National Hockey Card Day marks the 17th year of the annual hobby shop promotion, which affords collectors a free pack of hockey cards at participating locations. The 2026 event will be held on April 22.

Collectors ripping into packs will find cards from a special-edition set produced for the event, and those spending $10 or more on Upper Deck products in a participating shop will receive a special Rookie Moments bonus card on top of their free pack.
The base set will again include Prominent Rookies, Hockey Superstars, and Legends on Ice segments, giving collectors a chance to find their favorite rookie, veteran, or retired star.
Inserts will include UD Victory Black Rookies and Mascot Mannerisms. Lucky collectors will find a National Hockey Card Day Autograph or a PWHL Powerhouses insert.
Packs can be found in shops that are part of Upper Deck’s Certified Diamond Dealer network.
