CollectedCon Brooklyn: A One-Day Designer Toy and Art Convention at Industry City

CollectedCon Brooklyn is a one-day celebration of designer toys and art, held on October 17, 2026 at Industry City, 220 36th St in Sunset Park. It's the Brooklyn edition of a convention built around collectors and the people who make the work.

The format is deliberately stripped down. There are no booths and no large brand activations, only artist tables, so well-known names and up-and-coming creators share the floor on equal terms. The focus is on the New York area and surrounding scene, which means you can meet local artists face to face, look through limited-run pieces and original work, and buy directly from the makers.

The event comes from three names in the designer toy and urban vinyl world: Strangecat Toys, Chris RWK and Newtown HQ. They set up CollectedCon as a gathering for collectors, artists and enthusiasts.

Hours are 10:30 AM to 6:30 PM. General Admission and VIP tickets have sold out, but a limited number of Afternoon Admission tickets have been added. They let you in from 2:00 PM, giving you four hours to browse the artist market and shop. Advance tickets are $15 online, and General Admission is $20 at the door. Kids 12 and under get in free.

Industry City is a waterfront complex with plenty of food and shops, so it's easy to pair the convention with a meal or some wandering before or after. There's also a Discord community where visitors can chat with artists and meet other collectors. Artist tables are still being offered for anyone who wants to take part as a participant.
