Fanatics Fest is coming back to New York City, and this time it’s bringing something no sports fan—or curious New Yorker—will want to miss. The 2025 Fanatics Fest edition will feature the “Museum of Greatness”, a first-of-its-kind sports collection valued at over $200 million in NYC.
Set inside the Javits Center from June 20 to 22, this experience will blend celebrity culture, rare collectibles, and jaw-dropping sports history. All just steps from Hudson Yards.
Fanatics delivers a once-in-a-lifetime sports experience
Spanning 10,500 square feet, the Museum of Greatness is basically a mini-stadium. Inside, you’ll find 20 themed areas including “GOATs”, “Rising Stars”, and “Barrier Breakers”. It’s more than just sports—it’s pop culture, nostalgia, and ultra-rare memorabilia colliding in a single space.

Why NYC is the perfect home for this showcase
Security will be tight, with 24/7 surveillance for this record-breaking collection. With over 500 celebrities and athletes throughout the weekend, the museum will be the crown jewel of the event.
New York collectors and fans will also spot pieces that have never been displayed before. In fact, some were pulled directly from athlete collections. With more than 30 Tom Brady cards, rare Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle items, and even Lionel Messi memorabilia, there’s something for every kind of fan.
If you’re in NYC and looking for a mix of history, hype, and high-end culture, the Museum of Greatness is your must-see stop this June.
