The countdown has officially come to an end for lovers of hobby culture, graded cards, and the digital entertainment universe. This very weekend, the emblematic venue of IFA - Fira Alacant opens its doors to host the first edition of ICONS Alicante 2026 (August 15th and 16th), a colossal convention with 27,000 square meters of exhibition space designed to become the largest meeting point for collecting across the European continent. With more than 700 specialized vendors spread across over 1,000 exhibition tables and an expected attendance comfortably exceeding 20,000 visitors from more than ten countries, the event stands as the great thematic gathering of the summer at the peak of the Costa Blanca's tourist season.
As star highlights of this edition, it is noteworthy, first of all, that Tier Kards will have its own corporate stand, positioning itself as one of the largest spaces in the entire exhibition center. This enormous deployment is joined by the highly anticipated arrival of the great figures of the Spanish Creators' Selection (SEC), with the confirmed presence of online stars such as Jonata, Javi Bridge, Temo, Santy Elias and many more. In addition, the stellar participation of former professional and international footballer Juanfran Torres signing cards, stickers, and exclusive designs will be a reality thanks to the sponsorship and direct management of Tier Kards, making his presence at the event possible for the enjoyment of all attendees.
The exhibition hall will be filled with other top-tier historical and commercial attractions, such as an imposing exhibition valued at over 400,000 euros exclusively provided by the well-known «Big Brothers», a repertoire of over 450 resin figures brought by Kryptonia, and legendary movie prop replicas lent by Tesoros de Hollywood. Added to this is an intense program full of official Trading Card Games (TCG) tournaments, family areas with food trucks, and launches with official licenses from giants like Mattel (Hot Wheels, Barbie, Masters of the Universe), Sanrio (Hello Kitty), or Toei Animation (Dragon Ball, One Piece), also featuring world champion Javi Martínez to complete the roster of stars.
Complete Guide: How to Get a 25% Discount on Your Sunday Ticket with Tier Kards
Within the enormous organizational deployment of ICONS 2026, the specialized platform Tier Kards assumes an indispensable leading role as a strategic sponsor and major driver of the event. In addition to recently opening its first physical store in Deltebre and presiding over the pavilion with one of the largest stands at Fira Alacant throughout the weekend (both Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th), the firm leads an important loyalty campaign that allows fans to save a 25% direct discount on tickets for Sunday, August 16th.
Given that this is a promotion with strictly limited batches and redemption codes, it is essential to know in detail both the discounted rates and the step-by-step process to ensure access to the venue at the lowest price.
Promotional Prices for Sunday (Limited Units):
Sunday Adult - Full Day: From the official rate of 12.50 €, it is reduced to 9.38 € after applying the promotional code.
Sunday Late Adult (Access from 3:00 PM): From the usual 9.00 € at the box office, it costs only 6.75 €.
Sunday Rookie (Fans aged 7 to 16): From the official 6.00 €, it is set at just 4.50 €.
Step by Step: Purchase and Redemption Mechanism for Codes
It is paramount to understand that the coupon acquired directly from the Tier Kards digital store acts as a cross-validation code to set the final amount at the event's box office to zero. The process is completed by following these simple instructions:
Access and Selection: Enter the official Tier Kards website and select the Sunday pass modality that suits your needs (Full Day Adult, Late Adult, or Rookie).
Processing with Discount: Purchase the redemption code from the Tier Kards store, where the price already has the 25% discount natively applied.
Code Reception: Check your email inbox, where you will automatically and immediately receive a unique discount code.
Validation on the Official Website: Go to the official ticket sales platform for ICONS / Friki Monkey.
Cart Configuration: Select exactly the same ticket modality at the ICONS box office that you previously purchased from Tier Kards (for example, if you bought the Late Adult pass, select that same pass).
Coupon Application: Enter your received code in the discount box during the payment gateway (checkout). The system will automatically adjust the ticket price to 0 €.
Issuance of the Final Ticket: Complete the administrative operation without paying any extra cost and download the pass with a valid access code for the Fira Alacant turnstiles to your device.
Key recommendations from the organization: Remember to perform each redemption in separate checkout processes if you purchase multiple codes and make sure not to link codes from one category (like Rookie) to different modalities (like Full Day). The high anticipated demand suggests that these special rates will sell out in a matter of hours.
