ATTENTION CURRENT AND FUTURE VENDORS !!

With the great success of being able to spread the love to more non aquatic vendors this year, we are able to expand to the 2nd floor of our venue for more than guest speaking and kids area next show!

We will be opening up the 2nd floor to NON-WET vendors only! October will be the trial show for the 2nd floor so it will come with discounted table fees for at least this round! This will be great for reptile vendors who prefer a fully lit room as well as non-livestock vendors looking to join us.

Thank you all again for the continued support over the years
