Do you have this pop-culture phenomenon’s next big find?

America’s favorite treasure hunt ANTIQUES ROADSHOW is going back on the road in 2026 to film for an all new season of must-watch episodes — and people from across the country will be the stars of the show! ROADSHOW will stop in Rochester on Wednesday, June 17, 2026.

“Nothing can stop America’s love of life-changing discoveries and authentic guest reactions,” said executive producer Marsha Bemko. “We’re excited to stop in the Rochester area as we create a new season full of surprising items with jaw-dropping values, and are grateful for the support of our fans and sponsors who help ROADSHOW travel the country and bring TV magic to viewers!”

ROADSHOW will reveal the distinctive and historic venue for Rochester in the coming weeks.

At the appraisal event, guests will receive free verbal evaluations of their antiques, art, and collectibles by experts from the country’s leading auction houses and independent dealers. Each ticketed guest is invited to bring two items for appraisal.

Three one-hour episodes of ROADSHOW in Rochester will be created and will be part of the 2027 broadcast season.
