FEBRUARY 18
SYDNEY REPTILE EXPO
MARCH 23
- APRIL 3
SYDNEY ROYAL
EASTER SHOW
CRITTER CALENDAR
One of the biggest animal events in
Australia without question has to be the
Sydney Royal Easter Show. Started in 1823,
this annual show combines all things
animal with a host of other agricultural
displays, rides and, of course, show bags.
This year, we’re particularly looking
forward to the Baby Puppy competition.
Yes, that’s right! Every afternoon, you will
be treated to cuteness overload as these
three- to six-month-old beauties strut their
puppy stuff and the Best Baby Puppy of
the day is awarded the trophy.
Of course, there are all the usual best-
in-show categories to look forward to
for bigger animals, as well as the Alpaca
Promenade. Who could say no to that?

One of the most exciting events on the
reptile lovers’ calendar has to be the
Sydney Reptile Expo. This year promises to
be bigger and
better than ever,
with the expo
relocating to
the Stanhope
Gardens Leisure
Centre, a bigger
and better (and
air-conditioned!)
venue not too far
from the expo’s
old location at
Castle Hill.
Make sure you
head on down
to the show to see the latest and greatest
in reptile-keeping equipment, as well as
to fi nd out information on keeping these
fabulous creatures as pets from those who
are truly in the know.
