Hopefully this is the right place to put this. I imagine there are a few reptile keepers here and wanted to get the word out.

This will be the biggest reptile show Western Canada has ever seen. Right now we are over 130 booked tables, and hope to fill to capacity by August and that is 154 tables.

Hope you are able to check it out.

Announcing the 2nd Annual WESTERN CANADIAN REPTILE EXPO Saturday August 27th, and August 28th 2011 at the Capri Hotel and Conference Centre in Red Deer Alberta! You heard right we are moving to a better location to better serve the needs of our vendors and our patrons.

Western Canada's largest Reptile Expo will bring some of the biggest vendors and tons of reptile breeders and suppliers from across Canada to Red Deer. Reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates as well as all the supplies you could ever think of will be on display and ... sale. We also hope to have some special guests on hand (TBA)

After the success of our first show at the end of August 2010 an announcement was made that the show would continue for years to come. The contracts have been signed and we are here to stay.

"As this was our first show, we were blown away by the quality vendors and the interest generated by the public at the show," promoter Greg West said. "We now have plans to revamp certain aspects of the previous show and make it even better in the years to come. Our first step was changing venues to the Capri Hotel and Conference Centre which we felt would better fit the needs of our vendors as well as make it more convenient to the patrons who are coming from out of town.."

Just a couple of weeks to go and look at the list we already have for 2011!! We are so close to selling out. This is a show that you will not want to miss. We never would have imagined we would have over 148 tables booked. Better act fast if you want to become a part of this show. If you would like to become a vendor, please email [email protected]. At this point we have 6 tables that aren't confirmed(paid) if the couple of remaining unbooked tables fill up we will be bumping unpaid bookings and replacing with paid bookings. Table fees have now gone up to $100/table Ahhh we can't wait... If thought last years show was good, you will be amazed this year with all the changes that we have made. Thanks to all the vendors and sponsors who have got behind this show so early. This show is going to be huge. We have a maximum of 154 tables to fill the current layout. If you are wanting to vend, you will want to book soon to confirm you get a spot. We have a feeling that this will be sold out pretty soon. If you have tentatively booked but not paid, your tables are not confirmed. Once we are full we will be selling the booked but not paid tables. If you want to confirm you have your tables, they need to be paid.

Looking for something different to do the last weekend in August in Red Deer? Why not come to the Western Canadian Reptile Expo in Red Deer at the Capri Hotel and Conference Centre. This will be the biggest reptile expo ever held in Western Canada. All 30,000 ft2 will be filled to capacity with reptiles and reptile related products. From Boa Constrictors, Ball Pythons, Corn Snakes, Bearded Dragons, Leopard Geckos, to Centipedes, tarantulas, and scorpions, we will have everything reptile related you could ever imagine. At only $5.00 per person, and $15.00 for a family of 4, this is a great way to learn about reptiles as well as possibly add to your collection, or get your very first one. For less money than it costs to visit the zoo, you are able to see thousands of reptiles all in one venue. Industry leaders in the reptile world will all be at the show and it is your best opportunity to meet these people and get the correct info direct from those who know best.



Sponsored by Zoo Med Laboratories, The Urban Reptile, Big Als Edmonton, Reptiles Canada.com, Red Deer Advocate, Sunny 94: Favorites of the 60's, 70's, and 80's, and Kraze 101-3 Red Deer's Hit Music Channel

Too bad you can't make it. We are 4 tables from selling out all 154 tables and we have brought all the top reptile breeders from across Canada. No show in Western Canada has ever been this big. It's been a year in the making and is finally only 2 weeks away.
