The Sedalia Show-Me Reptile Show & Pet Expo takes place on Saturday and Sunday, July 18–19, 2026, at the State Fair Community College Expo Center in Sedalia, Missouri. Doors open at 9:00 AM both days, with family-friendly activities, vendor booths, and animal presentations running through mid-afternoon — plan to arrive early for parking and to catch special demonstrations. The Expo Center is located near Highway 50, with easy access from I-70, and plenty of on-site parking and nearby dining options for a full-day outing.

Explore the reptiles and insects at the Sedalia Show-Me Reptile Show! The bugs at the Bug Thugs booth won’t be crawling or flying off your shelf — they’re preserved into beautiful, safe pieces of nature you can take home. Stop by and see:

• Live reptiles, fascinating insect displays, and hands-on fun for all ages

• Unique preserved specimens at Bug Thugs — artful, ethically prepared, and perfect for collectors, gifts, or home displays

• Friendly staff happy to chat about care, preservation, and the stories behind each piece

Bring friends, bring curiosity, and bring a little wonder home with you — Bug Thugs will have something that makes you smile (and maybe say "aww" instead of "ew"). See you there!
